Western Nicator - Nicator chloris Jaap van der Waarde 2024-03-22 Nki National Park near Ikwa bai, Haut Nyong (Cameroon) (600 m) song -

No modification. Primary forest, very open, tall trees, closed canopy, on a hill side. Bird is in the canopy, which seemed odd for the species. I followed it for a while to get a positive ID, which I managed to do. In the distance there is another bird calling, so I assume this one had taken a high point on a hill to maximize acoustic amplification of his song in defense of his territory.
