Media notes
Unseen bird was 12-15 meters up overhead in dense tangles near the top of one of two ca. 18 meter-tall trees in the mid-levels of good terra firme forest along the 200-meter trail about 75 meters south of the main trail in the forestry plots. The bird seemed to shift positions during the first part of this recording, but I think it moved only about 2 meters at this time. In response to playback, this bird made a slow, spiraling flight downward with its crest fully erected and a emitting bumblebee-like buzz with its wings before landing at about half the height it had been on a small diagonal branch about 6 meters up and 6-7 meters away from me, where it remained during the second part of this recording. I could hear a second bird way off in the distance. Mostly cloudy, breeze beginning to pick up, 78° F. Equipment Notes: Sennheiser powered using phantom power and with filter in flat position and attenuator off for all recordings. Nagra input set at 2 mV / Pa and low-pass filter in flat position unless noted otherwise.
