Media notes
"Two males sparring(?) in the canopy. Facing each other, occasionally moving but perched about a foot apart. When I got there, I noticed them in that position and making strange sounds - lots of clicking and harsh scolding - for about a minute and then part, perch elsewhere before coming together and starting the whole thing again with the close perching and calling for about 2 minutes before parting again. This time, one of the males flew off." Recording from the second bout of sparring (I'm just calling it that, not sure what it was!)
