Observation details

Female foraging, luck. Just happened to be working large recently dead spruce right along west side of trail: 44.2250093, -74.6085593 Watched work up the tree and called softly for about 5 minutes before it flew west over marsh and into more suitable habitat. Maybe nesting over there?
