After the destruction of their nest last year, the magpies did make a second attempt. Mrs. Magpie stayed in the new nest for over a month but nothing came out. The pair eventually left by the end of May.

Birds in Backyards - Black Kite (http://www.birdsinbackyards.net/finder/display.cfm?id=65)

"Black Kites nest in isolated pairs or in small, scattered colonies. As with other raptors, a ritualised aerial courtship display is performed by both sexes. This involves loud calling, grappling of feet (talons), and tumbling or cartwheeling. The nest is a bulky cup of sticks, lined with softer material, and is placed in the fork of a tree branch (generally close to the trunk). The female incubates the eggs while the male provides food."


The Bird Index - Cartwheeling in Martial Eagles (http://thebirdindex.com/community/newsletter?news_id=19&tbiSID=066e7ac942d77e702e05650d7bec12ca)

"In 1993, Rob Simmons and John Mendelsohn, Namibian raptophiles extraordinaire reviewed cartwheeling amongst 39 raptor species. They concluded that 76% of cartwheeling displays were cued by aggression rather than courtship. In a few instances play behaviour was invoked, especially when youngsters were involved. But generally the nature of this parent-offspring interaction was clearly aggressive in nature. Tim Liversedge induced over 200 carthweeling events in 5 years by providing fish to African Fish Eagles along territory boundaries, and also concluded that these were fierce intra-sexual aggressive encounters."

The Magpies disappeared completely from the scene on Sunday morning, while the Kites landed on the nest boldly at least 5 to 6 times. The Magpies have probably abandoned their nest.

As the breeding season slipped quietly away, none of the Black Kites, Magpies and Black-necked Starling managed to use the nest.
The Black-necked Starling took possession of the site, spending some time on watch everyday, usually alone.
Mrs. Kite seems just wouldn¡¦t forget, paying visits in the morning and afternoon nearly everyday.
She stayed on post C for a while, making some long whines before leaving.
The Magpies were seen only a few times.

I visited the playground on June 27. The Black-necked Starling scrambled to a Kite (probably Mrs. Kite) hovering above.

I guess the nest removal was done by LCSD. But whether they are the authorized person / dept to remove bird nests which are protected by law.

Should the conservation committee of HKBWS send a letter to LCSD asking whether they get AFCD advice when removing the nest?

Should it be a policy of LSCD to protect bird nest in their managed sites?

The nature of this removal is very similar to the recent swift nest issue in Yuen Long. If permission is given, they should allow to do it only after breeding season.

Yes, LCSD should have standard guidelines or procedure for dealing with cases like this. If they have held up the repair work this time until the BC Starling chicks have left, then it would be a very good positive example against the mindless destruction of swift nests at Yuen Long.
