The last time that I visited Taiaroa Head the single chick in each nest was minded by one of its parents and didn't pay much attention to what was happening in other nests.
When the other parent returned from a fishing expedition (food for the chick) there was a greeting ceremony between it, the chick and the other parent - pair-bonding I guess.
Lara, that is a lovely story about the black birds . . I think that as long as we are calm and gentle with wildlife that we try to help, they can somehow sense this in a way which I can not explain.
