Field Notes:

Are gregarious and form flocks of 10-20 birds for most of the year. One bird will gather nest materials, inspect nest sites, and build the nest, while the other produces short songs. After eggs are laid, three to four adult marshbirds can be observed to guard the nest and bring food to chicks
