Marshall, 1945 37. Palau Haleyon chloris Common all islands. Principally in Casuarina trees along shores. Also common on telephone wires, Peleliu, Babelthmap; edges of mangrove lagoons Koror. Perches very high in the giant Casuarinas. Much less vociferous than at Saipan or Tinian. Didn't see the high-in-air performances, nor the fighting & loud conversations. Call, described under cinm is amazing because the drawl of Guam & Palau 'cinm' is used generally always following the main call of chick-chick, chick-chick, etc. (more or less double usually). Quality like barking wood but not as sharp & loud as that of Marianas bird. By comparison this bird is subdued, altho I have seen 3 or 4 together when they get pretty noisy. Call all thru day (near camp, Koror). Always in open: Trees at beach, phone-wires on causeways thru bay, roadside, edges lagoons, etc. Not in jungle except to roost at night (9 Nov Koror one collected out of 4 shot at - others looked sm & could have been cinm. Very
