Tajo Internacional (Natalio/M and Zica/F)

[Maria L]

Summary (I am not sure if I documented every attacks) M = male, F = female
M (Natalio) - F (Zica) 14:48:42 (short) - mistake?
(or I am not right )

witaj Mariko,
- myślę, że Natalio próbował odgonić Zicę przed ponownym atakiem intruza
- brakuje ataku z godz. 14:55:52 i 14:56:36
pozdrawiam serdecznie

Hey Maria, thx a lot!
It would be very helpful if you could document this nest - at least note down the events and videos are always welcome.

07.42.47 wings stretching and calling, fanned tail feathers
07.47.30 again shortly calling
- some nest work and N. is observing the area and so on
- the geese are very loud
08.01.04 the Egyptian Goose ( (Alopochen aegyptiaca) approached the nest



08.06.53 male Natalio out

[marika.solo]

​​08.12.13 one E.goose lands under the nest
08.13.21 E.goose out
​​08.13.22 ZICA arrives - silent landing (editet)
- I am still not sure if we see Zica on the nest, first I wrote Natalio

Note: She is recognizable by her distinctive peaked crown and angular head profile, which is much less rounded than Natalio's. (And her bill is darker.)



the E.goose is still loud

08.54.08 female Zica (?) out

[marika.solo]

- 09.13.49 male Natalio arrives (greetings his nest)

I am really confused - who is who, this stork seems to be similar to the previous one

preparing the nest cup

Witaj Mariko,

​​​​08.13.22 ZICA arrives - silent landing (editet)
- I am still not sure if we see Zica on the nest, first I wrote Natalio
Note: She is recognizable by her distinctive peaked crown and angular head profile, which is much less rounded than Natalio's. (And her bill is darker.)

proszę zwróć uwagę na malutkie piórko z lewej strony, z tyłu głowy (taka biała kropeczka) np. o godz. 08:01:24 i 08:17:04 - to ten sam ptak Natalio, Zici nie było

pozdrawiam serdeczne
Maria Lewandowska

[marika.solo]

11:04:08 silent arrival - Zica (?) ... yes, Zica
11:09:56 settled down
11:11:36 up (big back - defending posture?)

11:11:38 second stork arrives
long greetings
11:12:04 second stork sits down - NATALIO arrived for sure
(males sit in courtship displays - greeting females)

11:12:31 up - N. preening

[marika.solo]

11:14:16 both are calling, fanned tail feathers, who unwanted is there again?

continuation:

clear defending behaviour (bill up) - especially Natalio is very upset


11:14:57 Natalio settled down ("it is my nest")
11:15:13 N. again up
- he is moving the nest material .. defending behaviour continues

11:18:03 N. slowly calmed down
11:18:33 preening
11:18:57 streaming stopped (the chat already some minutes earlier)
