With little or nothing in the way of R components. NODWA. (But the Glor phrases overlap Andean Sparrow Songs apparently at random.) [[margin]] Glor [[/margin]] 6:27. Now several Glors are singing. NODWA Then Glor shut up. Hear first Atlapetes Whistle Songs 6:30. Also NODWA There is quite a lot of wind 6:33. Nevertheless, it is fairly warm.
