We have a pair of loons on our lake and they are most interesting to watch and listen to. They call to each other with distinctively different calls and answers. I made a quick sound file this evening. The return call is barely audible, but these birds communicate across a long distance with these calls. I've been waiting to get this pair on a video, this evening was my first try... I'll keep at it until I get a better audio/video to post. I managed to capture audio with Audacity then to combine a pic from the good ole Nikon into a video using Pitivi. Worked pretty well!
Here's a spectral plot of the loon call...
I wonder what information is captured in this complex spectra... They call back and forth, so maybe it's checking in... How are you?... How's the fishing over there? |
I hope everyone is enjoying the summer or winter - depending on where you are!
