Media notes
Recorded at 1015. A short squabble, then soft contact calls between three birds while foraging in grasslands.
Observation details
Continuing, obliging birds. Initially two separate groups of three, foraging in grasslands approx 70 metres apart on southern side of main water body, coming together eventually. They often observed the sky and ceased foraging in the presence of an overhead raptor, becoming motionless or sitting down with a low profile.
