I have found that if you do hear a "hidden bird" with an eerie cry, like a rusty hinge or a bad note on a cello, don't be alarmed, it is only a pheasant calling you to supper!
I have finally taken my four legged friend with me for 4 miles. She kept up such a brisk pace that I did feel rather like the hobbits must have felt keeping up with "Strider"! But since she is a she and 4 legged I have dubbed her Trotter, since Tolkien chose to discard the name.
