Talk:Red-legged seriema

Predatory, yes
The bird may be predatory but what is its prey? There is no mention in the article about its diet. 70.161.208.216 (talk) 14:21, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Edit request for the main image
Are there any high quality images that show the full body of the bird?Esagurton (talk) 07:38, 10 February 2018 (UTC)

Reproduction
The long second sentence in the 'Reproduction' section reads: 'During the breeding season, the male, more intimidating or forcing himself on the female, spreads out his wings laterally, moving them forward and displaying the contrasting arrangement of the flight feathers, a pattern similar to that of certain birds of prey, such as the African secretarybird (Sagittarius serpentarius).' The opening clause of the sentence is not at all clear: 'During the breeding season, the male, more intimidating or forcing himself on the female, spreads out his wings laterally...' 'More intimidating' than what? Is this display a part of the male forcing himself on the female? If so, is that always the case? Do the females try to flee? The confused syntax makes this impossible to understand. RobotBoy66 (talk) 06:39, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
