Please refer to part 1 at • Singapore WB Sea Eagle...
After a quick break, I go to Block 100 to resume the video. Highlights:
0:00 Parents perched almost next to each other, 1 seaglet perched just above the nest by partially hidden by leaves
27:00 Camera pans to Blue Throated Bee Eater perched on tree
33:50 Dad Poop Shoot, Seaglet Winger
34:15 Camera pans to Blue Throated Bee Eater perched on tree
35:25 Blue Throated Bee Eater flies off, comes back with an insect in it's mouth & perches. Camera pans back to WBSE nest tree
Seaglet just above nest has changed to a visible branch
48:15 Weaker Seaglet on visible branch goes back to just above nest, wingers
48:50 Hidden Seaglet (not the one on visible branch) flies from one branch to another, flapping wings visible.
49:50 Weaker Seaglet Wingers just above nest
50:15 Weaker Seaglet goes to nest, Wingers on nest
50:30 Stronger seaglet shows it's head & wingers at 50:40
51:00 Both seaglets perch near each other and there is a lot of wing flapping, faces are blocked by leaves. They are most likely
51:50 Stronger seaglet flies to branch directly under parents. Immediately after it lands, Mum flies to night roost branch.
1:14:00 Dad Poop Shoot, then jumps to a lower branch
1:14:15 Dad joins Mum on night roost branch
The 2 parents obviously love each others' company and perch side by side at night. This also allows us to tell which is Dad & Mum based on the size. For White Bellied Sea Eagles, females can be up to 20% larger than males. This allows us to differentiate between Dad & Mum when they perch side by side next to each other. If they are not perched next to each other, the distance between the camera & each eagle is unknown and therefore the size method cannot be used.
The camera also pans to the Blue Throated Bee Eater perching on a nearby tree from time to time. Check out singaporebirds.com/species/bl...
Many thanks to the residents of Bedok North Block 100 for allowing me to use their corridor to film.
