Media notes

"Peent" calls and multiple boom displays, 9:44 AM. Recorded from the top of the ridge across from main parking area, observed one CONI flying and calling and repeatedly circling upwards and diving/performing booming display directly overhead and in front of me. It also would boom to the left and right of me, but in the same general area. At one point two other CONI joined the main bird I was following overhead and all were flying and calling together.
