ITS NOT that they know its a bird but the fact its a bird sound. Remember that they take much longer to respond than yotes or foxes do so dont get in a hurry when calling them. I have called as long as 45mins knowing that I was in cat country. Be prepared to work them slow and once you get them in the light be careful with movement and remember, they are cats so be patient. Good Luck!

I called one thursday night in the dark,it came to coyote vocals.They are not that smart,but they move like sweet honey butter.
I called him back to my caller twice using bird sounds and twice using a mouse,and rabbit sound. It was pitch dark no moon.

it's in distress "=" probably not flying anyway.
Bird's are a lot more succeptible at night, specifically the ones nesting on the ground. It's not that the cats have no logic, it's that they hear an easy meal and respond. Bird sounds on my TC diaphragm are what I call 99% of my cats at night in on. Logically, we have no jackrabbits in Virginia but I bet there's been a many predators whacked using Lightning Jack in these parts. Bird distress works wonders on coyotes as well at night, it's what I use for a distress sound on almost all of my stands at night. Works great on foxes too! I think logic goes out the door when the chance for an easy meal arises.
Any high-pitched, face paced distress sound will trigger a cat's attention. Good luck tommorrow night, I would give anything to hunt them with a Flir thermal imager. I've tried them out a few times and they are bad-azz! Let us know how you do and Good Luck!

So true!! Jason has dropped his share of cats.
Jason? Wondering how hard it is to work those TC Diaphragms? Thinking about giving them a try.
