There are only males and immature birds. At this time, females are incubating. The next courtship displays will occur in August.
On this picture, we can see ten birds, but several other bustards were in the surroundings. They were very far, about 500 metres or more. I used the TC 1.4, giving me 700 mm, but it was not enough.
