Detalhes da observação
Reeds Rd, at first pass bird was not at her nest with no sign of any bird. Nest with first egg was found on May 1. Assuming one egg was laid per day and up to four eggs in clutch, incubation began about May 5. Average incubation time of about three weeks would have had eggs hatching around May 26. I personally saw her in nest May 25. So it is possible chicks hatched. On way back out of area parent bird showed up and seemed to be displaying distraction maneuvers: flying over and away from area, landing on ground with wings out, and on tree limbs alert and watching. She (it) obviously did not want me around. I left without seeing any chicks which were probably well hidden. Recording attached (sorry for quality) is the parent’s soft vocalizing; probably to lure me away and warn its offspring.
