In the spring the males find an open clearing near where they live. At dusk they display on the ground making a peent call. They fly up towering quite high. They descend to earth making a strange twittering sound with the end primary feathers of their wings. They are also called Timber doodles or Sky Dancers. A little luck involved to get the bird just as it was taking flight. Dave
