The recordings shown here were all made at the beginning of the rainy season, on the same day, from 5:00 to 7:00 a.m. The location was a caju-tree, about 5 m high, and I was either standing close to the tree, or sitting in the tree, 2-3 m above the ground. There were 2 female Crested Becards, and at least one male. The Becards were apparently busy with nest building.
