Observation details
Continuing. I didn’t see it until 35 minutes after I arrived, when I heard it calling and then saw it flying above the island. It landed on the aerator briefly and then flew away to the north. It returned ten minutes later, calling. It flew to the east side of the lake before landing on the island. Over the next several minutes, it flew off the island and returned twice. I have photos.
