Observation details
heard a male calling near atop grand live oak at barn and then a little while later heard a response from another GHOW. shortly after this, i observed the male fly out to a leafless tree where he encountered the female. i was able to discern sexes and who came from what direction (and who was thereby leading the calls and who was responding) based on the copulation i observed just a couple minutes after the arrival of the male. both stayed a couple feet apart at about the same height in the same tree and did a little courtship call and response with each other before the male mustered up enough courage and copulated with the female. in the attached audio, you can hear the male start and the female respond to him. will upload copulation photos later.
