Behaviour:
The males sing in long, continuous bursts. The frequency is at the limit of human hearing, and is rather quiet, sofor most people a bat detector is thebest way of locating singing males. Heard in this way, the song resembles a persistent 'chugging' motor. Singing males are usually evenly spread out in their habitat, although silent ('satellite') males can often be seen close to songsters. The females are attrcated to the male song. [1]
