07/17/17 15:29:59Possibly detected47.8955-63.6818The classified upcall in P3 is not convincing - it is short and looks like an artefact. The upcall in P4 is more convincing, it is definitely an upsweep but still quite short, and near in time to some more of those unknown sounds that may be humpback. There is a third unclassified upsweep, also poor shape in P3.

07/17/17 02:29:5947.8812-63.6567Some more short sounds in 400-600 Hz bands, haven't seen this kind of pitch track yet this year, makes me wonder if humpys are beginning to make noise. Check later.
07/17/17 04:29:5947.8821-63.6594more HF sounds; not being pitch-tracked well? Or maybe just mechanical noise. Check later.
07/17/17 05:29:5947.8915-63.6584Bizarre. Some sounds look mechanical, some look biological. Check with full spectrogram later.
07/17/17 06:29:5947.8888-63.6671More bizarre sounds. Seems biological. harmonics evident.
