Dove guardare

Consigli sul campo

1. Listen for the song. The male's 'conk-la-ree!' song is very distinctive and often the first indication of their presence, even when hidden in dense vegetation.
2. Look for males on prominent perches. Males often perch on the tops of cattails, shrubs, fences, or utility lines to sing and display.
3. Observe flock behavior. Outside the breeding season, look for large, often mixed-species, flocks foraging in open fields or roosting in dense vegetation.
4. Scan marsh edges. They frequently forage along the edges of marshes and ponds, often walking on floating vegetation or probing in mud.

Migrazione

Northern populations are migratory, moving south for the winter. Southern populations are largely resident. Migratory movements occur in large flocks, often at night.
