Series of "peent" calls preceded by (very) soft "hiccups."
Observation details
No clear visual observations of bird, save for silhouette in flight (just after dusk), but identified easily by voice, behavior and location. At least two males heard, at least one on ground, vocalizing, and a second in flight (wing twitter). First bird vocalized repeatedly for roughly twenty minutes from same spot in grassy patch of open woods, with occasional flights up, around and back to same spot. Heard distinctly and recorded (1) repeated "peent" calls; (2) "peent" sounds with leading (faint) "hiccup" sound; (3) wing twitter (from both birds); (4) wing twitter combined with high-pitched "chip" notes. Did not observe any "chatter" sounds this time.
