    :D
    Whenever I go outside at nighttime, I can hear a kind of noise similar to a swift but much shorter (half a second maybe). Its definitely flying around and it can be heard at all hours of the night.
    I have also heard it over the other side of Dublin at night also.
    Does anyone know if it could be a bat or a bird?

    I think the social calls of bats like the pipistrelle can be heard by us. I can sometimes hear bats when I see them or at least that's what I presume it is.

    I've heard bats before but I didn't think this was their sound.
    I also thought that they would be hibernating by now.
