Media notes

NOTES: Neotropical Institute Cut # 14. Bulk reel: 201; Extra cut length: 12:27; Extra cut length: 4:08203 tape.0505hr. Natural song. (Reflector pointed @ sky.) (After ~8'(?) Ciccaba virgata heard in background.) Quality: 1. Level: 0 or -3 to 0. 3.75 ips. LN. Quality: 1-. Level: +2. 7.5 ips. LN.0530hr. At end of this section is a "wing-flap display." Quality: 2+ to 1. Level: 0. 3.75 ips. LN.0555hr. Continuation with Ciccaba virgata (and one series hoot of C. huhula).Toward end the bird is silent for long periods between its phrases. Then it gives its bother calls, perhaps because by now it's light enough for the bird to see me well (altho I can't see it). Quality: 1-2. Level: 0. 3.75 ips. LN.
