... that the grey-crowned flatbill and orange-eyed flatbill have distinctive songs?
ALT1:... that flatbills are easily confused, but the grey-crowned flatbill and orange-eyed flatbill have distinctive songs?- Reviewed: Dana Coin
- Comment: This is a two-article QPQ

@Cwmhiraeth: A few issues here. The original hook to me isn't at all hooky, why wouldn't two different birds have distinctive songs? The ALT establishes that there could be some confusion and is much better but this difficulty in telling the different species apart isn't mentioned in the Orange-eyed flatbill article at all and doesn't have a citation directly after it is mentioned in the Grey-crowned flatbill article. This needs fixing before I can pass this. Additionally the expansion on the Oranged-eyed flatbill doesn't currently look like it is enough to meet DYK criteria, perhaps once the additional text, citations etc. are added it will put it over the edge - Basement12 (T.C) 10:15, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
- @Basement12: Sorry for the delay, I was on holiday. I have lengthened the Orange-eyed flatbill article and suggested a new ALT2 hook, the source for which is on the previous page of the Ridgely book. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:29, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
- ALT2:... that the grey-crowned flatbill and orange-eyed flatbill often build their bag-shaped nests near wasp nests?
ALT2 looks good @Cwmhiraeth:. Expansion length + date, QPQ all fine. AGF on the citation (and copyvio check) as I can't view the page in question. GTG with ALT2 - Basement12 (T.C) 09:48, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
