Nesting Pacific baza

Post by Barb Learmonth »

A first for us at Niddrie Dve! We have a Pacific Baza nesting in a very flimsy structure about 20m up a gum tree in our yard. 28/9/13

There are 2 pacific bazas. One is building the nest (male?) while the other sits on a nearby branch watching.

Pacific Bazas nesting

Post by Bill Jolly »

Congratulations Barb!

Bazas nested in the same tree in our garden for 5 consecutive years, some time ago now.

You can look forward to learning lots of different contact calls as they bring food to the nest, or announce that they're about to change over.

Great fun ahead!
