Males are territorial and hostile, defending stretches of shoreline, and an approach by an intruding male results in aggressive displays, loop-the-loops, and chases. They are most active in the morning. Females are rarely seen at the water\u2019s edge unless they\u2019re in the mood, and they may breed while still in their juvenile coloration.","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/380\/2016\/11\/e-pondhawk14-14rz-500.jpg"}
