Observation details
one very active juvie in nest (found yesterday), the fledgling now further away from nest tree - both calling, still no sign of adults videos taken so could record the sounds made: https://www.flickr.com/gp/34289351@N00/52pPDf https://www.flickr.com/gp/34289351@N00/B870J3 Update: nest empty Aug. 26 and no calls heard in vicinity so could not locate the two juvies; had heard brief single spaced coos from back of Henry Marsh (well west of nest location along trail); both cuckoo species have been seen/heard by the marsh over summer months Note: Aug. 30 - Deb & Tony reported hearing a juvie north of trail & saw one adult Black-billed east of nest site and heard another adult
