Observation details
Photos and audio collected at 8:45 a.m. Birds were courting. Males were pairing up with females, females were demurely in sleep position but with eyes open. Vocalizing was melodic with several different sounds, including one that sounded like human laughter, another that was like a horse or pig snorting, many repetitive passages.
