Media notes
This is a female DOWO calling loudly with a male DOWO nearby. The birds flew from tree to tree in the backyard. Not sure what their interaction was: mating behavior? looking for a nest site? aggression? Mysterious. The recording has the usual traffic noise for my backyard (Old Lead Mine Road is very close by and it was rush hour {17:38} when I recorded this.
Observation details
Pair of DOWO flew around and landed on many of the backyard trees, making this weird loud call over and over. Most of the time, it was the female making the noise, with the male answering and following. Mating ritual? Looking for a nesting site? Mysterious. Made a sound recording of the behavior.
