Single notes made by the males. Single soft trill at 9 sec made by female.
Observation details
2 females, 4 males. 3 males were competing over 1 female, with 2 in particular being involved in running disputes for over half an hour (still at it when I left). Whenever the intruding male approached the vicinity of the female the aggression intensified, with much calling and trilling. The two males frequently sparred in mid-air. Meanwhile, the female sat quietly except when the males came close, when she would also join in the calling.
