Just a reminder that we tend to focus on the males because of the loud calls but the females are also an important part of the issue. When you find the male take some time and look around the general area slowly for any females that maybe hanging around. I found all of these (7 total) very near calling males within 5 feet and some less than a foot, usually more than 1 were heading towards the male, 4 of the 7 had eggs. The first picture shows a female on the underside with eggs (lighter mass towards rear)the other is a male sitting on a quarter surrounded by females.
