Perching approximately 15ft off the ground on a dead branch of a walnut (?) tree. The area is surrounded by dense vegetation that is primarily invasive species like privot, multiflora rose, and european alder. Also plenty of grape vine. Near to the lake, so soils are somewhat sandy and well drained. Watched it pursue prey 4 or 5 times. It would follow the prey 20-25ft and then return to the same perch. Same general area I found the other individual. When netted it did not try to fly up, instead landing on the ground and refusing to fly. I was able to slip a container over it. In the container it did not buzz at all like some of the other large robbers. Will post pinned photos in a separate observation when I get the chance. Last photo is of the location it was found, the dead branch sticking straight out was its perch of choice.
