Here's a thought. If you discover a possible breeding pair of birds, and if you think those birds have not been known to breed in this area previsouly, then monitoring the site "regularly" just when the birds are trying to 'hook up' as it were, may not be what's best for the birds.
On the other hand, I guess it's good for a birder who cares mainly about bragging rights?
In the alternative, how about just letting the birds be, and then discretely go back in a month or so to see if anything has come of the observed amorous behavior?
