  Thanks! It seemed to be by itself and not doing any performances. Posted 2 years ago

    Well done on spotting it! I never would have spotted mine if not for the incessant singing (that's pretty much all that lekking hermits do, along with some tail twitching - but no cool dances like the manakins) Posted 2 years ago
