Media notes

Presumed female cooing for almost half an hour. At times another bird in the area made a contact call behind me. The cooing bird then responded at least once with a growly kowlp. The final segment has the highest quality rating. ML: 100 Hz AUHipass filter applied in soundBlade HD to all segments. Interesting range of vocalizations over half hour period from two birds, including cooing, contact, alarm contact and slow kowlps. Other Behaviors: Advertise.
