Observation details

Saw this one here a couple days ago. Today it stayed hidden in the cattails, but its distinctive call was unmistakable… a low muted quick“coo-coo-coo”. You can hear it in the background of the recording. Both days, it has been in the cattails on the SE corner of the pond on the right side of the trail (as you are walking north from the parking lot).
