Hi, i have heard a whimpering noise the past two days and have looked for my dog which was happily sleeping inside! Both times it has been during the day. We live in the middle of a wood in wales. As soon as i go out it stops. Just want to rule out things and try and find out what it is?
Hi vikki, the only bird I can think of offhand that makes a "whining or whimpering" type sound is a robin.

If you can ignore the background noises and police cars, this video features some mewling Robins

Roadrunner aka chaparral. One of their calls sounds for all the world like a whimpering puppy.
We have a mated pair who hang out around our place, West of Fort Worth. They had us hunting that dog for days until we figured out it was them. lol
