Observation details
Pair building a stick nest in a tree near the pond. I watched them for maybe 40 minutes -- one would stand on the nest arranging the sticks, while the other was a little higher up keeping an eye on things. About 15 minutes in, they got together atop the nest and copulated, which was interesting to see but left me feeling like I was invading their privacy just a bit, despite the distance I was keeping. Maybe it was all the photos I took.
