Dziko lathuli limakhalapo ndi kuchuluka kwa nyama zachilendo komanso zowopsa, zomwe pakati pawo usiku waukulu umanyadira. Mlenjeyo amabisala bwino, kuphatikiza ndi mtengo womwe adakhalapo. Anthu ambiri amene anakumanapo ndi mbalameyi kutchire amazisocheretsa kuti ndi chitsa cha mtengo kapena nthambi. Kuphatikiza apo, ma jala a usiku ndi amodzi mwa ochepa omwe amasaka masana komanso usiku. Amayembekezera wovutitsidwayo ndikumuukira mwadzidzidzi. Mbalame yachilendo imakhala ku South ndi Central America, Haiti ndi Jamaica.
Kufotokozera kwathunthu
Mbalame yayikulu yausiku ndi mbalame yaying'ono kwambiri, yolemera osapitirira magalamu 400. Thupi lake limatha kutalika masentimita 55. Mtundu wa nthenga za amuna ndi zazikazi zimakhala zofanana. Chifukwa cha mutu wachilendo komanso wowopsa wa nyamayo, komanso maso owopsa, amatchedwa "mthenga wochokera ku gehena." Mbalameyi ili ndi milomo yayifupi komanso yotakata, mapiko akuluakulu ndi mchira wautali. Chifukwa cha miyendo yawo yayifupi, mitsuko yausiku imawoneka yovuta.
Mbalame zodya nyama ndi zofiirira pamwamba ndi zofiirira zofiirira zokhala ndi mawanga ndi mikwingwirima pansi. Mikwingwirima yakuda yodutsa imawonekera pamchira ndi nthenga zouluka.
Nkhalango yamadzulo yamatchire
Moyo ndi zakudya
Mbali yayikulu ya nkhokwe zazikulu zakusiku ndikutha kwawo kubisa. Nyama zili ndi luso pankhaniyi kotero kuti atakhala pa nthambi yosankhidwa, ali otsimikiza za "kusawoneka" kwawo. Mbalamezi zimaphatikizana bwino ndi nthambi, chifukwa chake, ngakhale zimayandikira, sizovuta kuziwona. Pobisala, ma nightgars musaiwale kuwunika zonse zomwe zimachitika mozungulira. Ngakhale ndi maso otsekeka, nyama zimawona momwe ziriri (sizimatseka kwathunthu ndikutsatira iwo owazungulira kupyola ming'alu yopangidwa).
Ziwombankhanga zazikulu zimakonda kupumula panthambi zouma zamitengo (izi zimapangitsa kuti zizitha kubisala). Monga mwalamulo, mbalameyi imayimikidwa kuti mutu upachike kumapeto kwa hule. Izi zimapereka chithunzi choti nthambiyi ndiyotalikirapo kuposa momwe ilili. Masana, majekesi a usiku amakhala omasuka kwambiri ndipo amakonda kugona. Usiku, zigoba zazikulu zausiku zimatulutsa kukuwa koopsa. Phokoso limakhala ngati kulira kwankhanza kutsatiridwa ndi kukuwa. Ndipo ngati, limodzi ndi kufuula, mukawona maso achikaso achikaso a mbalame, mutha kuchita mantha modabwitsa. Kuphatikiza apo, ma nightjar amakhala moyo wokangalika kwambiri usiku. Iwo ndi agile, othamanga komanso osatopa.
M'malo mwake, ma jala a usiku siowopsa monga aliyense amaganizira. Mbalame zimadya tizilombo chifukwa milomo yake siimapangidwira nyama zazikulu. Pachifukwa ichi, mbalame zimadyera ntchentche ndi agulugufe, zomwe ndizokwanira kwa iwo. Pakusaka usiku, mikwingwirima yolimbana ndi mphemvu. Kuphatikiza pa mawonekedwe owopsa komanso phokoso lowopsa lomwe mbalame zimapanga, nyama sizowopseza anthu.
Kubereka
Kutengera ndi dera lokhalamo, mbalame zimatha kubala kuyambira Epulo mpaka Disembala. Chovala chachikulu cha usiku chimakhala cha nyama zokhazokha. Nyengo yoti yakwana, yaikazi ndi yaimuna imamanga chisa m'mitengo yosweka, pambuyo pake yaikazi imayika dzira limodzi lokha. Makolo amayang'anira mwanawankhosa wamtsogolo motsatizana. Mwana akabadwa, amakhala ndi mtundu wapadera womwe umamuthandiza kubisala kuthengo, motero chitetezo chake chimatsimikiziridwa. Mwana wamphongoyu waphatikizidwa ndi chilengedwe kotero kuti ndi nkhono za dzira loyera zokha zomwe zimakupatsani mwayi kuti mupeze nkhalango yakuda.
Zosangalatsa
Mapiko a chida chachikulu usiku amatha kufika mita imodzi. Nthawi zina, nyamayo imadya mbalame zazing'ono komanso mileme. Nyamayo idakhala ndi dzina losazolowereka chifukwa chazizolowezi zawo zopeza tizilombo pafupi ndi gulu la ng'ombe, mbuzi ndi nkhosa. Mbalame zimauluka mwaluso pansi pamimba kapena ziboda za nyama yayikulu.
