It's quite rare for them to do this but this particular guinea pig has done it as least four times now that I have heard. The first time she did it I was convinced a bird had flown in and got trapped behind the cage.

Tonight she did it again and I grabbed my camera but it was too dark to get her on film and she was hiding anyway but I got the 'noise'.

It's just uploading to photobucket now.

aww so cute.

Here it is - the famous 'Iggy' singing.

And this is the culprit looking all sweet and innocent just after..

Beautiful piggy and great singing lol.

Wow. I've never heard that before.
I didn't know piggies did that.
Thx for sharing the recording.
And he looks adorable as well.
Does anyone know why pigggies sing like that?

I don't think anyone really knows why they do it to be honest. Some think it may be an alarm call used by their ancestors or a kind of warning. Iggy seems to just do it at random times and she doesn't seem distressed at all and just carries on eating as normal afterwards.
