High-pitched, whistled 'wit-wit-weee' repeated persistently from dense scrub. Covey contact calls are soft, rapid clucks; alarm produces sharp explosive chips.

Stone Partridge

Emits a clear, whistled peet-peet call and soft clucking series. The repeated, clear whistle is far-carrying and melodious for a partridge; heard on West African rocky outcrops.
