Can you identify these insect sounds?

When we walk by a forested area at night, we're not sure what is making the noise. It makes the forest sound haunted. At first we thought it was bats, but we have been told no.

If anyone could listen to the mp3 I made and tell me what insects are making these noises and what they're doing, I'd sure appreciate it:
