Media notes
NOTES: (Time: 1130/1650. Breeding Status: Territorial paired, breeding.) Foraging and flightr calls splutter plicks of flight as "moving on"--and song-phrases more distant than nearer. Somewhat "muted" songs--("subsong"). also pair contact. The loud Hypsipetes spoils the songs sequences. (There are more recorded but not this "warbled" song. Foraging and interactive calls per annotations (on LNS annotation). Good mimic song obtained 8:40 mins. 1650 ends the cut after a loud burst of noise with wind and rain etc. Male F. rubra has a splutter plink heard behind my annotation before its "1500 hrs" mimicry of P. jocosus. [HPR 250 Hz.]. Other Behaviors: Mate.
