Old farrier Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 that sounds a bit like the Whoomagoolie bird, it as very short legs. Only the male makes the unmistakable call though the female is more nag nag nag 😊😗 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aga man Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Red-legged Partridge. Partridge sometimes have two nest, that would explain the small number of eggs. I agree, also looking at the picture the eggs look a bit dirty and perhaps abandoned, so the nest might have already been robbed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted May 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 The nest belonged to Alectoris rufa and it had been abandoned which may explain why there are only four eggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
