H=C3=A4kan,
Were you watching this Roe deer as you recorded ? My observation with this =
beast in my area is that, in additon to single loud barks, in a typical seq=
uence they will give one very loud bark, then a short pause followed by mor=
e frequent barks at a lower intensity which fade out somewhat. You have thi=
s typical sequence 3 times at 2s,28s and 51s in your recording, as they do =
the more frequent barks they run off using a series of jumps and each jump =
coincides with a bark. Thus what I hear in your recording is the sound of t=
heir feet as they depart and this may be your "clicks", it is especially ev=
ident in the sequence at 51s where your animal has clearly moved away.
Listen to the second recording on this page and at about 2mins in you can h=
ear the same thing reasonably clearly as this animal ran off over frozen sn=
ow:

Sorry for the lengthy explanation, I hope it makes some sense for you.
I like Roe deer, they always give me a fright and it amazes me that such a =
gentle beast can make such an aggressive sound. The first recording on this=
page shows just how aggressive they can sound when they are close by and a=
t about 1 min in you an again hear the feet although not as well as my firs=
t example:
