Observation details
Very curious bird that kept calling and even moved amongst the bamboo from one side of the bridge to the other, but never came out. We have recordings, but BEKF and ODKF both seemed to have similar calls when we compared in field. Upon inspecting the recordings, it fits quite well with ODKF, while BEKF seems to have a slightly more buzzy/vibrato-ish call, which is what I would link to flycatchers like ABF and BBF as well. The calls were coming from bamboo clumps just overhanging the very small river, and (perceived) behaviour seemed like that of a typical kingfisher. Also, we waited and watched the bamboo for a looong time but the bird didn't come out although it kept calling.
