Media notes
Poor recording with wind gusts a problem but it does pick up the excited flight calls and infrequently heard 'chitter' call, at 10 secs, by likely the male (not 100% sure) courting the perched female.
Observation details
Male and female doing courtship flights over the yard and adjacent wetland boggy area south of Hwy 60, their usual nesting territory (where they successfully fledged young in 2019). Recorded some of the flight calls, probably of the male, while the female was perched at the top of one of the yard red pines. Lots of 'klee' and 'killy-killy' calls heard during dives and soars.
