Observation details
Very vocal and easy-to-find male in "forest" of Gray Pines near power-line pole with "31" on it in yellow stickers. From the Young Wo access, turn left and walk about 0.25 mile. The bird was quite vocal to the left and was easy to track in the woods (if you're willing to walk in). No playback was used and given how rare this species is in the county, I believe birders should refrain from causing this unwarranted stress to the birds. I also looked farther down the path (near pole #26) for the female but no luck. Photo of the male:
