Franklin's and Bonaparte's both present O.O.T.O.⁴⁴

MC of O.T. U-HF, by one bird at least

MC One O.T. U-HF-bill dipping. Other OL.T.T.T. U.F.

MC  One OL-U-HF-T!

MC  Both U-HF-T-dip

OL. after attack T.T.T.²¹  O before attack¹ OL. after attack.².T.T.T.T.T.²⁶  U before attack⁴ U after attack⁷. Bird in O- O before attack² OL after attack³ O.O.⁴⁶U.¹⁰

Complete MC, on water, seems to be OL-U. Latter may be preceded by T. Usually interspersed with T's, HF's, and dippings.

OL after attack.⁴ OL OL OL¹³ T.T.T.T³⁰. U after attack⁸ OL after attack⁵  OL¹⁴. T. U.U¹². O⁴⁷.OL¹⁵.O⁴⁸.T.T³².

MC OL-T-U-HF U before attack⁵. U after attack⁹ . O before attack³. U before attack⁴. U after attack¹⁰

I think that the "Landing Call" is also characteristic of all these OL's on the water

Is there also a staccato attack call? Yes, I think

U before attack⁷  U after attack¹¹  U after attack¹²  O⁴⁹.T.T.T.T.T³⁷.U¹³.
