nestpredation

30 June 2025

Guido Klep bstudies quality of the geese and their nestsite. He studies the time spend incubating or feeding. To measure this, he has placed 30 wildlifecameras at selected nests, which make a picture every two minutes. And suddenly there is an incident. Scroll down to see four pictures. De female sits on the nest incubating while the male stands guard.

Why did the male leave?

Oops, now we understand.....

An empty nest, no reason to incubate.

Check the time stamps on these pictures.
