Observation details
Heard distant kiddick call, played the call, and got no response. But within a few minutes, I heard a grunt call to my left, after which I played the grunt call to confirm. Within a few minutes the bird answered loudly repeating the call. I estimated the bird was no more than 10 feet away, yet I could not see it within the grasses. After about another five minutes, there was another grunt call, this time coming from my right, sounding about 20-30 feet away. I waited, heard nothing else, and started to leave. As I was leaving, I again heard the bird calling! I turned, went back, but there was nothing else. There may have been a second bird, or the first moved without my seeing it. Managed to record, but not a complete call. Heard at end of white oak trail from platform deck.
