Observation details
Continuing pair in the trees surrounding Ernst Market. When I arrived, the male was singing high up in a tall, mostly bare-trunked white pine along the west side parking lot, but was moving around a good bit. At one point he flew to the ground behind an adjacent house and began pulling dry grass from a garden patch, then carried the grass to a large white pine along the tree line south of the market. Fred Shaffer and I watched both birds of the pair carry grasses to this tree and we eventually spotted the nest. The female was on the nest subsequently.
