Item On the Bateleur, Especially at the Nest(1945) Moreau, R.E.; East African Agricultural Research Institute AmaniAn account is given of one hundred hours of observations at a Bateleur'a nest in north‐eastern Tanganyika Territory. The adults were a white‐backed bird and a chestnut‐backed, with a sub‐adult; probably over three years old, in association with them. The youngster took 130 dap to fledge. During at least part of the time all its food was brought by the white‐backed adult. When the fledgling was about one month old its feeds averaged about one in eight hours; during its last week in the nest feeds were nearly three times as frequent.
