On the trail of the calls of the bats

You can't hear bats with the human ear at all! Or can you? Together, we embark on an exciting journey into the sensory world of bats. From echolocation calls, following the motto "I find you, you tasty moth," to social calls like "come here, I want to get to know you," our winged, nocturnal friends have a wide range to offer. During an evening walk through the orchard areas in Purkersdorf up to the Vienna Woods, we will use a sound detector to make the calls of the bats audible. Perhaps we can even hear some chirping with the naked ear.
