Observation details

Tickells blue or hill blue FC. Did some experiments using playback. It came out form within dense bushes onto an open perch 3 times when I used playback. 2 times on playing 2nd song on merlin for hill blue and 1 time on playing tickell's blue song. When it was out in the open no strong reaction to song but it kept on calling. When played the call of hill blue on merlin it took interest and started calling a bit more excitedly and loudly. No such reaction for call of Tickell's. Did not sing at all, inspite of me playing songs for tickells, hill and large blue fc. However i think I heard the 2nd song on merlin on field a couple of times but wasn't able to record it as it was sporadic and wasn't very continuous but not 100% sure about the song.
