After this morning's half-day SFO visit to Arnot (highlighted by a good number of "scope warblers"), I stuck around Greensprings Cemetary to photograph bobolinks, and presently witnessed three black-billed cuckoos involved in a chase (presumably 2 males with a female "observer") around the same "island" of trees behind Carl's Bench. This was followed by prolonged calls (up to 40 verses uninterrupted): a serenade of the victor? Thanks to this singing, I was able to get good looks and passable photos of the bird in various spots around that island.
