Observation details

Heard the 2 calls from 2 directions. 1 was coming from last year's nest tree! Later I heard the male and a female calling from two different trees. When they noticed I was looking for them, the male flew about 6 trees away. The female went a short distance and started calling with an immature, which had a short screech call , several times. So this was the young from the spring still near it's parents.
