This pair of striated caracaras were hanging out together on Carcass Island. I believe they are a mated pair, and I saw that one of the birds (and likely both) was banded (V15, yellow band).
From Wikipedia: 'On the Falkland Islands the striated caracara breeds between late October and January. Its nest is built of twigs and grass on the ground, under tussoc grass clumps, or on cliff ledges. It usually nests in loose colonies with nests sometimes as little as 7 m (20 ft) apart, and there is some evidence of cooperative breeding.'
Cooperative breeding occurs when individuals who are not the parents assist with raising offspring.
Another factoid about this bird is that it is considered 'near threatened'. This is because there are not very many individuals (likely less than 3000) and they have a limited range. Both factors would make them very susceptible to disease or weather/climate disasters.
The reddish plant the caracaras are standing in is red sorrel, which was introduced to the Falklands. The sheep like it and the leaves make for a nice addition to a salad for we humans.
