Media notes
First few tracks are bird singing naturally. Playback was used later once the bird had quieted down. A second individual sang once from nearby (referred to in audio announcements) but this may not be audible on the track. At one point the bird flew up to a few perches 5m off the ground after playback, and did not give sonations when it flew to the ground (sonations in these circumstances being common in both Pitta ussheri and Pitta arquata); this may indicate that Pitta baudii does not make these sonations. Final segment of this record is the clearest recording. Other Behaviors: Perch.
