Media notes

NOTES: Neotropical Institute Cut # 81. Bulk reel: 385.203 tape.A display (it seems that the bird began the display immediately upon takeoff; the had been recording whistles before the display, but I missed recording them.) [sic] Quality: 1. Level: +2. A flight by this same bird. Quality: 2. Level: +2.Another display; then two more, these less "in focus." (these begin upon takeoff to all practical purposes.) Quality: 2-. Level: +2.Various "soft" calls, then some ascending whistles. Quality: 2, some 1-2. Level: +2.The "clicking" or static-like sounds heard in many places are the wingbeats of bats flying through the "beam" of the reflector!.
