@artyfarty2 I read that in 'The Blind Watchmaker'. I consider us pretty lucky that we can't hear them :).
-
One of the interesting things that I learned about bat echo location is that if we could hear them they would be absolutely deafenning to us because their chirps are so loud.
-
Doesn't it depend on they species of bat? There are various echo location methods employed by bats.
-
I think you'll find they are modulated into our hearing range.
-
How adorable! ^-^ The bat's pretty cute too ;)
-
Bats are cool
-
Thats so cute, ha ha.

The sound of a bat echo is a chirp: it sounds just like a bird chirp if you slow it down enough. I know because I tried it once - slowed down a bat chirp using an audio tool on my PC. I think the bat detector is producing a click for each "chirp" it hears.

(now I understand)
The sounds we hear just after Dawkins has turned on the box may be... I dunno!
Perhaps a ringing interference due to some electronic device nearby.

Maybe the sounds are made up by the box when it detects the start of an ultrasound stream from the bat; but I don't think they have nothing to do with the real waveform of the bat's sounds.
