– utters a variety of different calls in flight
\n– on long-distance flights (at night\/daytime) a distinctive polysyllabic<\/em> call is often heard
\n– narrow modulated, many inharmonic partials<\/em> but monophonic<\/em>; towards the end overlapped by a very dense broadband noise<\/em> (second voice box?)
\n– when excited sometimes a double syllable<\/em> call, not unlike Bar-tailed Godwit<\/a> or Red Knot<\/a><\/p>\n\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/BIF3631-1_PFR16445_0-00_200404_BIO_nlapw-1-FC_d_bb_streng_REF-S_702_C.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n
