Observation details
I got a recording of the female flight call when several females flushed from the Fairfield Canal. Another group of COGOs on the lake consisted of six males and nine females. Two of the males were performing the courtship display where they bend the neck back until the head touches the rump and the bill is pointing straight up. Fun to watch!
