Hello everyone)
Royalcam News
GLY and L at Plateau
The first egg of the season has been laid, 1st November 2026
GLY and L have produced an egg at Plateau on last season’s Royalcam nest in a first for Royalcam. As they were the Royalcam parents of Manaaki during 2023 and have fledged 4 chicks, they have self-selected to become the 2026/27 Royalcam pair. Of course, they have no idea of this, but it saves us moving the cam later.
Pairs throughout the colony are continuing to reunite, mate and defend their territory. Nest building activity increases as egg laying approaches. Both the male and the female will spend time at sea feeding and are not continuously taking turns at the nest until the egg is laid. They will share incubation duties until the egg hatches in around 79 days. Then they share the feeding of the chick till fledging.
Meanwhile, rangers are busy checking on toroa, preparing the irrigation system and the incubation room for the busy season ahead.
First Royalcam Egg Of The Season Has Been Laid! Congrats GLY & L The New Royalcam Couple 11.1.26 Lady Hawk
