How does a bat make use of ultrasonic waves to find its way?

Bat produces ultrasonic sound while flying. Ultrasonic waves reflect back after striking any obstacles in their way and bats hear it. Thus, they detect the obstacles in their path and change their path without colliding with the obstacle.
