From the leaves cattered under the tree it appears that the birds are stripping the leaves on the branch above the tree.The farmer indicated that this particular site is regularly visited by snakes (boomslang).
From my limited time observations it also appears that there is only one male building the nests. 30958 0 4/11/2022 2 This site previously had more nests before the farmer trimmed the tree. Currently there is only the two nests and from observations over a 3 day period there is only one male active. Two females showed interest but one appeared to be chased away by the male continuously. 31352 0 19/1/2024 11 Previous records from this site:
