Media notes

NOTES: Sony TCD-D10 ProII HPF on. -20 dB pad on. Unusual squeal call in response to my imitation of the ki-dik call. [This recording contains both the "tick-it" and the "kiu" calls of BNA. The "tick-it" calls were given at the beginning of the recording (0:03-0:11), but later only the "kiu" calls were given (0:28, 0:45, 0:48, 0:51, 0:54, 0:59, and 1:24). Quality changed from ~1-2 to 2-1, 1-2 (but with a change in gain during the initial series of calls) - CAM - 7 April 2005]. Other Behaviors: Emit Alarm. Habitat: Wetland, Freshwater, Pond, Hedgerow.
