Observation details

Aggressive behavior in response to owl mobbing playback by an adult female, which we suspected probably had a nest nearby. This species normally rarely vocalizes. Briefly we saw a second hummingbird that gave slightly longer, more musical "shreet" calls, but we couldn't be sure what species it was (possibly the male Salvin's Emerald?).
