Media notes
While waiting around for this bird, I heard about four single and widely spaced songs by this species from the north side of the road opposite where this bird had been singing (the last one at the end of file #BOL232). Although I never definitely heard this bird sing on the north side of the road, this was both a bit to the west and closer to the road than I typically heard Bird #2. This bird then began singing again from where it had been at 17:32:36, after which it moved up the road to another densely vegetated tree, though still at the western end of where he had been singing (about 50 meters east of the tree where had been singing earlier in the afternoon, but nonetheless in a tree on the south side of the road where this particular bird regularly sang). Despite moving around a little bit this bird remained in essentially the same place for this entire recording. Of note is that the bird on the north side of the road sang more consistently earlier in the afternoon but this bird sang more later in the afternoon. This bird gave a single song at 18:01:48 from a tree about two-thirds of the way back to the eastern end of where this bird usually sang from. Incidentally, I saw the Pipra that gave many of the calls heard in the background as it came into a fruiting Melastome (possibly a Miconia) and it was in female-like plumage. The sun seemed to be just down by the end of this recording. Mostly clear overhead but with high clouds off to the east, calm, 83° F. There was a near complete full moon about 20° up in the eastern sky at 18:00. This individual was recorded multiple times and can be found in the following ML records: 221669, 221671, 221677, 221687, 221698, 222319, 222338, 222355, and 222357. 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.
