Biology |
Clutch size is two. They are monogamous and stay together during the breeding season. Eggs are laid on bare ground in a scrape, which can be on stony ground and if the ground is soft it will make a small depression. Nest is sometimes ringed with small stones or sheep droppings, small pebbles, dry plant material or rabbit droppings. Both sexes incubate the eggs and care for the young.
