Observation details
A most unexpected, pleasant surprise. I heard it call several times in the distance and it wasn't registering what I was hearing (mammal?). It flew closer and when I could hear its raspy, shrill cry better it finally kicked in what I was listening to. It flew overhead and then it sounded like it perched (not moving). The same vocalization was heard as single, long notes given maybe 5-10 seconds apart, in bouts of three or four calls then longer pauses. It did not call consistently. I probably heard 15 vocalizations over a ten minute period.
