Media notes

NOTES: Neotropical Institute Cut # 22. Bulk reel: 376Weather: Cloudy, fair. Starts with a display. (Good for graphing.) Then "ao" calls. Another bird also gives similar calls in background. Then after a long delay, another display. Quality: 1. Level: +5, +2.Then "growls" in background and "bother calls" by bird in focus. These are due to territorial conflict, not to my presence as I first thought, and state on tape. Quality: 1. Level: +2.Then a "flight scream" by another bird. Then continuation of the conflict bother calls and it seems there were three birds present (one pair and an extra male ?). Then flight scream as birds flew. Quality: 1. Level: +5. Other Behaviors: Perform Visual Display, Emit Alarm.
