Media notes

NOTES: Calls, apparently of a family group, with two adults and a juvenile (complete with yellow gape flanges) - most calls seemed to be from the adults. Birds were flying around low over water, and regularly perching either alone or together on a small stick that stuck out of the river about 50 m from me. Cloudy, calm, 75¡ F. Some microphone rumble towards end. Atticora fasciata was also present, but I don't know if it called. ML: Background subject changed from recordist's original identification of Xiphorhynchus guttatus eytoni to Xiphorhynchus guttatus [eytoni Group] to conform to eBird Taxonomy (v. 1.55). -Jay McGowan/Matt Medler, July 2015. Other Behaviors: Establish Flock Contact, Establish Parent Young Contact, Social Context: Family. Habitat: Rainforest, Evergreen Forest, River.
