Media notes
At the line of army ants, I made a last ditch effort at playback for R. cristata. Un gran éxito! After one loop of the track, a male charged across the trail from the rear of the marching ants and proceeded to challenge the playback with a full throated defense of his army ant troop. Seems to me like this bird was just hanging out near the marching ants, perhaps waiting for them to swarm. Great recordings and good looks as well!
