Observation details

See audio. All grunting (mostly in response to VIRA and KIRA tape, as well as my own imitations) at roughly the same time, from different locations, in the first section of marsh west of the road. Two were close to each other and often gave overlapping grunts, with the third farther west. Upon wading into the middle of the marsh, the pair grunted from roughly 10 yards away, and one also gave a high-pitched call. Assuming these three didn’t include the lone VIRA previously heard well east of the road, that would make at least 4 present in this marsh.
