Observation details
adult, probably male; heard it calling in the woods and was pretty sure what it was and walked in to investigate. It was quite vocal and seemingly territorial so it may be setting up to nest although I never saw a second bird. There are many mature dense stands of Eastern White Pine in the area. I didn't approach too closely and photos and video were taken with my iPhone through my telescope at a distance of 50-75 yards. It is at least a month too early for eggs but they can be quite aggressive when on territory and will even strike a person that approaches a nest site.
