Species Account:
Vocalization: CN | Playback: 2 | Species Comments: YBCU#: 1, FLY; SI; PR; Responding to playback, Flew into nearby cottonwood and observed at length as it hopped around and preened. Called multiple times alternating between kuks and full CN. From detections at Snake River 23 on visit #2, confirmed 2 individuals at minimum. Due to proximity to Snake River 1 and 2, there is a chance, albeit low, that these are the same birds from previous detections. Between the various behaviors, I would speculate these was a pair. Cooing/Squeaky call noise and multiple contact calls between the two.
