Observation details
Three immature birds in a group at the western edge of the eastern part of the pond, with two adults in the same area, one of whom flew towards me calling. Another adult and an immature bird standing near each other in the western area of the pond before calling and flying off south together as I approached. An adult later waded and foraged near the nest that seven weeks ago on 06/11/17 had four eggs in it and today appeared to be empty. If, as seems likely, the immature birds were from this clutch they would be no more than seven weeks old.
