Nest monitored under permit as part of a long-term population monitoring program. Unusual substrate and placement, and slightly unusual structure.
In Ashe Juniper and oak woodland.
3 songs in about 35 seconds. Shortly after, a male landed about three feet from me, hopped around on several branches seemingly eyeing me, then left.

Third of three.
Did lower ash grove trail (only trail currently open) with very few birds; 90% were seen from parking lot and primarily in first few hundred feet after exiting parking lot on right side
