– a variety of different calls in flight and during migration
\n– all calls are highly variable, different transitional forms exist
\n– differences between sexes
\n– two common call groups during migration: honks and squeals
\n– honks and squeals with regular disharmonic partials
\n– the modulation<\/em> of honks is very variable
\n– honks and squeals uttered singly or series
\n– short calls (chuckle) when irritated or disturbed (observers)
\n– chuckles uttered singly or in series<\/p>\n\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/BIF3670-1_PFR19099_1-10_220202_BIO_barngoo-1-FCHONK-WS_uk_caerlaverock_REF-S_MP6-II_B.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n
