Observation details
Third time’s a charm! Missed on 7/4/2022 (too late?). Missed again on 5/27/2023 (too early?). Today — BINGO! Found a single male around 1:30pm with a stiff breeze in the air (a lot of wind interference). It was a challenge to locate, requiring a good bit of trudging around in the tussocky tundra field and listening carefully for song. First clue in the field was a very short incomplete song fragment and we followed the direction of the sound. Found at approximately 63°03'31.0"N 145°57'19.7"W in the flat open tundra habitat. Good thing Eliana asked the universe to deliver! Photos & Audio to follow.
