Beobachtungsdetails
First observation at 0541. 60 counted on property. 18 individual(s) singing. Additional breeding codes: A, CF, NE, FL Lots of alarm calls and upset behavior while I was walking through reaches 4 and 3. Flushed a female from a nest on a bench above the creek near the east end of reach 4; the nest was placed among Agropyron intermedium stems and had four RWBL eggs plus 1 BHCO egg. Also saw a female carrying food (grasshoppers). Most individuals in reaches 4 and 3, plus a few (approx. 4) around the constructed wetland upstream in reach 2. It has been hard to get robust counts of RWBL over the last few years - it's hard to keep track of all of them! Today I tried a new strategy, picking a landmark ahead of me and counting all males and females between me and that landmark, then extending my counting area out to the next landmark once I reached the first. This method appeared much more robust to me than prior methods, which have probably underestimated abundance; at least on this day, males seemed fairly stationary in their territorial perches, without excessive movement upstream or downstream while I counted.
