Chipping regularly, but rather softly, on dead branch of W side of #6. 1608- finally adult with food to nest. After W bird died and this adult had moved to ending same perch & then to broguinte just behind, then over to #4 where regular chipping, dropped down & appeared to head for nest but quickly reappeared still carrying food. Then finally down to toast. Silent. 1700- located a singing & SE from nest, across road & 200+yds away. flew up into dead shrub & began singing continuous song. Soon heard chipping from W. & then to S where for 3-4 minute more & then headed west. Lit ~100-200 yards to S of nest -so probably this is & #3.
