Media notes
Calls from a male bird actively displaying to a nearby female. While displaying the male would rapidly flutter its wings and move its body back and forth. The pair were part of a group of 10-15 birds, perched relatively low in open, wet grassy scrub.
Observation details
Estimate (likely well under estimated) of an enormous colony in the wetlands here. There were hundreds of birds in the air at any one time bringing nesting material to the colony, in addition to the continuous cacophony of birds in the grass out of sight.
