Observation details
One pair has built a nest on the dike that runs parallel to the path and separates the canal from the main pond. Fascinating behavior--the female (I assume) was sitting on the nest, and when I walked by she seemed like she was "hiding"--minimizing the visibility of her black neck and white cheek patches by laying her neck out flat towards me--see photo.
