Example recordings

  • Variation of the calls of native bat species

    available since 4. June 2018

    The example of recordings of native species shows the variations of the calls. The recordings are edited in such a way that typical calls without the typical call spacing are provided as time-delayed calls (10-fold stretch). They can thus be viewed with any software.
