Media notes

NOTES: Habitat: Humid bushy grassland with Eryngium sp. (Umbelliferae). Remarks: Contact calls; contact calls delivered by a bird after its mate flew about 15m away. The bird that had moved away approached its mate again and started to deliver the contact calls too, giving the impression of a two note call in the recording. LNS: Background subject changed from Ortalis motmot to O. guttata squamata to reflect current taxonomy. --Jay McGowan 17Jul2013. Other Behaviors: Mate. Habitat: Grassland, Thicket/Brush.
