Field Notes Doug Bell Plebs Ranch. Humboldt Co, Calif. March 26 - cont. Look to left corner, settle, up, settle, etc. When it possibly tried to settle, it looked like it would lower head and pick or move something. Then it got up, move back to behind grass, rotated, lowered. Back to left corner - sat down, peering out hole, at angle. At one point it looked like it tried to push something with its leg. Back up - to behind grass. This whole time it has been wailing on and off. 0:330 - Out of pothole to snag (C). Sitting - wailing intermittently. The pothole (B) may have been a good cache - but I did not see any clear eating. Maren thinks she saw a peregrine pass over pickup to the NW of rock as we drove out. So was that the B, and this wailing bird the ?? She So peregrine is still on snag C - peering now. 8:45: Two falcons present? The one bird, with lighter breast, remained in pothole. The bird on snag (C) is too ? - slightly more pink & barring to breast. Deeper mail. She was peering, wailing every so often. Don't know where she came from. Male up, at edge, half sitting on hunches. Wailing too. E - checking heard 8:50 - Male flew out of hole to ?, mated (recorded), curled, and now settling on some snag group as ?, but higher up so fast that the original bird I was watching was male, and it was wailing a bit - it disappeared in pothole for from 8:30 to 8:45 - sitting on eggs?
