LEAST BITTERN: Three 2-day old chicks and one egg in the latest of the five
active nests; adult on the nest,- the first time I have seen an adult at this
nest.
An adult making a chip-chip-chip sound, very similar to the note of a Downy
Woodpecker. Three chips in one second, then three seconds of silence, repeated
for at least one hour. It might have been trying to locate its young; it was
about 50 ft from the nest that 3 (4?) young were leaving August 5.
Only two other adults seen in 2 hours at the marsh, the fewest in a long time.
VIRGINIA RAIL: One alarm call as I approached it in the cattails
PIED-BILLED GREBE: 2
GREAT EGRET: 2
