Bird in 5.5 foot high marsh grass along road, giving mostly four-noted calls until approached, then giving mostly three-noted calls. Bird was driven out of the grass and onto the roadside where it was captured. In a cage, it gave on series of "croo croo croo croo" very softly. The other calls were either "ti ti terw" or "ti ti ti terw". Habitat: Tidal marsh. Same subject as ML 2837. BNA: Fourteen examples of the primary call given by this species in the breeding season (the "kickee-doo" call of BNA and others). (CAM - 7 April 2005).
