Observation details

I am confident there were at least four singing males defending their territory. The first two could be seen and heard singing at the same. The third bird was seen and heard singing while bird 2 was also singing. I watched bird number 3 fly off when a car passed, then soon afterwards he returned to his perch and immediately started singing again. The fourth bird was much farther down the road and he also would leave his singing perch after a disturbance and come back to the same bush and continue to sing. I believe there are more than 4 here.
