They don't nest just lay eggs right on the rocks (which is my eniter back yard). I have river rock & their eggs look like the rocks. They come out around 8pm & squawk all night until around 5-6 am. This leaves me with no sleep from April to Sept. Ugh! Has anyone else had this problem?
You may want to put something out there that they will not wake up.
