Media notes
Calls from one juvenile individual waiting for adult to return with food. The adult returned at the end of the announcement for this recording, so ML526864291 is effectively a continuation of this recording. One of a sequence of five audio recordings of adults (not sure whether 1 or 2) feeding three immatures. The recordings are ML526863901, ML526864081, ML526864291, ML526864401, and ML526864511.
Observation details
Adult(s) feeding three immatures. I never saw more than four birds so I cannot say whether one or both adults were feeding the juveniles. The juveniles were perched in a partially dead snag. They had already left the next. The nest was not in this tree. The five recordings on this checklist (ML526863901, ML526864081, ML526864291, ML526864401, and ML526864511) were uploaded in sequence of recording. The entire sequence began at 0709 hours CDT and ended about 0734 CDT. Unfortunately, this was during a high traffic time so I had to cut many recordings short and insert gaps around many passing cars. I was on my side of the road, in the highway right-of-way (but still safe); the birds were in a tree on the other side, just outside the highway right-of-way.
