Media notes
The bird is perched in the same tree as the two previous recordings. The playback track is played several times. After the second play, the bird begins preening itself. After the third play, a second bird lands in the same tree and the first bird flies over to within a close proximity of it. After the fifth play, the first bird defecates and then flies to a branch approx. 3 ft. further away from the microphone.
