David,

Thank you for your comments, I have installed Audacity and will experiment =
as per your suggestions.

No, I didn't see the deer, it crept up behind me, I believe I was sitting i=
n it's regular route through the clearing.... hence the noise it was making=
 after it found me.

The first bark was just behind me, very loud and completely unexpected, I h=
ad been monitoring through headphones for 40 mins by that point so I jumped=
 out of my skin!
The clip I used was from a few mins later as it moved away, there are some =
faint, single hoof beats (typical of muntjak) associated with some of the b=
arks.

Muntjak are very common in this area, but as I didn't see it, I can not be =
100% certain about the identity.
I would say it was about 30-35 metres away at the start of the clip.

Thanks, Ross
