Makhalidwe munyengo yokwatirana
Wagtails ndi gawo, ndipo amuna amatetezera malo oswana ndikudyetsa malo kuchokera ku mbalame zina, akuwonetsa milomo yamilomo ndikudumphira mumlengalenga. Amawukira ngakhale mawonekedwe awo m'malo owonekera. Ndi mtundu umodzi wokhawokha, kukondana kwamphongo kumabweretsa kukwatira. Amuna amapeza chisa ndi chakudya chachikazi.
Mbalame zimamanga zisa zooneka ngati mbale pansi muudzu, modetsa nkhawa, kapena m'malo osaya, osemedwa m'miyala ya m'mphepete mwa mitsinje, m'makoma, pansi pa milatho, ndi munthawi yazitsulo ndi mitengo ikuluikulu ya mitengo. Zisa zopangidwa mwaukhondo zimapangidwa ndi udzu, zimayambira ndi magawo ena azomera ndipo amalumikizidwa ndi ubweya, nthenga, ndi zinthu zina zofewa. Mkazi amamanga chisa, amuna alipo ndi kuthandiza.
Wagtails amabereka kuyambira Epulo mpaka Ogasiti ndipo amapatsa anapiye awiri kapena atatu nyengo iliyonse. Mbalame yaikazi imaikira mazira 3 mpaka 8, kutengera kutalika ndi malo. Nthawi zambiri yaikazi imafungatira mazira yokha, koma nthawi zina yaimuna imathandiza. Makolo onse amasamalira anapiye. Mbalame zazing'ono, zitakweza nthenga zofunikira kuti ziuluke, zimachoka pachisa masiku khumi mpaka khumi ndi asanu ndi awiri.
Wagtail mwana wankhuku
Chifukwa magaleta sakuwoneka m'mitengo
Mbalame sizimakonda kukhala pamitengo. Amakonda kukhala pansi, pomwe amadyera ndi chisa. Pangozi, magaleta amathamangira msanga ku zomera zowirira kapena ming'alu ya miyala.
Pofunafuna chakudya, mbalamezi zimagwiritsa ntchito njira zingapo, kuphatikizapo:
- kutsatira khasu polima;
- kusankha chakudya pansi kapena pamadzi;
- kufunafuna tizilombo;
- kumiza pamadzi;
- zouluka ndi zouluka pogwira nyama yamapiko;
- kupesa zomera ndi masamba akugwa.
Wagtails ndi anthu
Anthu amakonda kusangalatsa kwa magaleta. Mbalameyi imakonda kuthamanga patsogolo pa anthu akuyenda m'njira ndi njira, kenako imakwera mlengalenga ndi kulira kwakuthwa, kenako ikamakumana kuti ikakumanenso ndi munthuyo. Oyang'anira mbalame amasangalalanso ndi mbalame chifukwa chakukhala kwawo mwamphamvu, mphamvu ndi utoto. Wagtails amadziwika kwambiri mu nthano zaku Japan, Greek ndi African.
Kusunga mitundu
Chifukwa cha kuwonongeka ndi kuwonongeka kwa malo odyetserako ziweto ndi madambo, malo omwe akukhalako akuchepetsedwa poyenda ngolo. Zotsatira zake, mitundu iwiri ili m'gulu lomwe lili pangozi, poopsezedwa kwambiri ndi World Conservation Union. Mitundu itatu imadziwika kuti ili pachiwopsezo, yomwe ili pachiwopsezo chotha.
