Detalles de la observación
At least, one group (maybe up to 10 individuals). Group followed for 1.5 hours off-trail across 2 small swampy areas and 2 low ridgetops before rain started. Very soft, sibilant insect-like contact calls with a very occasional swizzle by the group. They did seem to stay a bit longer in treefall areas probably as there were more spaces to check for food. Impression of constant activity but numbers tough to estimate as the individual birds moved so fast (although the group itself could be followed at walking pace). I found the birds too fast for autofocus and had to switch to manual, although it meant the photos weren´t sharp.
