One time, as I neared a nest area-, the displaying bird (first) came within 5 feet of me and walked completely around me and then moved about 30 feet away. Upon walking toward her, he went into a mouse run and then a distraction display where he lowered his tail and darted away.

One pair flushed from the grass where there was apparently a nest. One bird flew 30 feet and landed giving the regular display call. The second bird gave a distraction display. She assumed a crouch position with both feathers ruffled, tail lowered and formed, one head lowered and shoved forward. The call she gave at this time differed greatly from that of the white-rumped. It was more of a thin sub-keezy note emitted. The clear kee-kee of the white rump.
