Observation details

Put on a show about 5:45. Made the ‘peet’ call for about a minute then flew to the west with feathers making the display sound. From my vantage point the first two times it went between the moon and Venus then high enough that I lost sight. The third time it veered east after at about 100 feet above the field. It was beginning a fourth round of ‘peet’ calls as I was leaving. I think the same bird made all the flights I saw so my count is one.
