Buhay

The buhay is a musical instrument that is used in Ukraine and is classified as a friction drum. Buhay is the Ukrainian word for great bittern, and its use as name of the instrument refers to the sound produced. The mating call or contact call of the male buhay is a deep, sighing fog-horn or bull-like boom with a quick rise and an only slightly longer fall, easily audible from a distance of 3 mi on a calm night.
