Observation details
*Localized and difficult to detect. First noted a single "chup" call at 1853. Responded intensely to my confirmation playback and was seen hawking in the dimming light. Audio TBA, modified and cleaned with Audacity. Initial loud "chup" is my phone, with the remainder being the bird. Bird's silhouette appeared smaller and more athletic than I'd expect chucks, hawking on open spaces at heights up to the crowns of pines, but I'm not familiar with either species' capabilities or habits. A second singing in the distance while standing at the first bird's location. Too distant to be recorded, and only singing the characteristic song in full twice.
