Hey guys I know the topic of crested talking has come up a bunch but something 'new' happened the other night. I don't know about you guys but my girlies never seem to keen about getting stalking and accosted by the males, but usually settle once grabbed. Well the other night, one male was on a low piece of bamboo and the female was considerably higher. She begain to produce the duck-like squeak I'm sure you've all heard, but she also was tapping her tail on the bamboo. The result was a bangand sqauk which she kept up for about 3-4 minutes at about one 'noise' ber 7 secs. Well the male ran p and she just lay there and seemed to be 'into it'.

Never seen that kind of communication before, if anyone has follow ups i'd be glad to hear!
