Media notes
Unprovoked, natural calls from an individual perched 4.5 m distance. This individual appeared dominant not only over two conspecifics but also over a Cinnamon Hummingbird, which it chased off the perch from which it is here heard making these calls. It spent a lot of time on that perch, often calling. When calling, it moved its head constantly from left to right and made sudden, slight opening movements with the tail.
Observation details
An estimated 6 individuals present along a trail about 150 m long. We caught two of them early on, but the birds quickly learned the position of the mist-nets and avoided the nets while feeding in the area.
