Media notes
NOTES: (Range Status: Normal, highly endangered. Sound Category: Muted song.) HPF 200 Hz. Playback was used briefly for the initial loud sesction. Thereafter all was natural. Two individuals, male and female. The initial loud sequence accompanied a "courtship display." One was shivering its wings--but the 2nd continued foraging. Note: We include a sequence on the cut at the end of the second sequences of muted song and of the "courtship display" at a higher level so the soft notes are more readily heard. Other Behaviors: Advertise, Court.
