ROPI in farm building singing. Courtship like behavior noted with song. The squeaky noise at 35 seconds is the movement of the "hay fork track" in the barn.
Observation details
5 ROPI in farm building. Birds calling frequently. One bird was on a beam and was singing. Twice the bird turned to the left about 60 degrees, then 60 degrees to the right. as it sang. It then flew down to the loft were a second ROPI had descended seconds before. They seemed to interact for a few seconds, (not seen), at the loft area with a lot of flapping of wings heard. The first bird then flew back to the perch it just left. The squeaky note at 35 seconds in the audio is from movement of the "hay fork track" in the top of the barn as the birds flew about the barn.
