00:13:30,443 --> 00:13:33,346
SHE WILL RETURN REPEATEDLY TO
ENSURE THE SURVIVAL OF HER
170
00:13:33,380 --> 00:13:37,917
YOUNG.
171
00:13:37,951 --> 00:13:41,221
THE CLEVER CHOICE OF NEST SITE
ENSURES THE FROG'S OFFSPRING
172
00:13:41,254 --> 00:13:46,259
WILL HAVE THE BEST CHANCE OF
SURVIVAL.
173
00:13:48,428 --> 00:13:52,165
COMING UP, TWO HEADS ARE BETTER
THAN ONE, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S
174
00:13:52,198 --> 00:13:57,203
ONE OF THE MOST INTELLIGENT BIRD
SPECIES ON THE PLANET.
175
00:14:04,144 --> 00:14:04,277
.
176
00:14:04,944 --> 00:14:07,213
NARRATOR: WE NOW RETURN TO THE
MORE YOU KNOW ON NBC.
177
00:14:09,115 --> 00:14:11,117
[MUSIC]
178
00:14:22,562 --> 00:14:25,598
DYLAN: IT'S THE BEGINNING OF
THE BREEDING SEASON FOR ONE
179
00:14:25,632 --> 00:14:30,637
HEARTY BIRD ON THESE EXPOSED
ROCKS IN THE ATLANTIC OCEAN.
180
00:14:31,738 --> 00:14:34,674
BUT LUCKILY, SHE IS PERFECTLY
ADAPTED TO THIS HARSH
181
00:14:34,708 --> 00:14:38,445
ENVIRONMENT.
182
00:14:38,478 --> 00:14:41,481
THE WHITE STORK.
183
00:14:43,950 --> 00:14:47,721
THIS COASTLINE IS HOME TO THE
ONLY COLONY OF CLIFF-NESTING
184
00:14:47,754 --> 00:14:50,757
WHITE STORKS IN THE WORLD.
185
00:14:52,959 --> 00:14:56,096
MOST MIGRATE TO AFRICA TO SPEND
THE WINTER MONTHS IN WARMER
186
00:14:56,096 --> 00:14:59,132
CLIMATES.
187
00:14:59,165 --> 00:15:02,936
HOWEVER, THIS COLONY HAS SETTLED
ON THE IBERIAN PENINSULA, THANKS
188
00:15:03,036 --> 00:15:06,039
TO ITS ISOLATED CLIFFS.
189
00:15:08,708 --> 00:15:13,546
THE SAME NEST SITES ARE USED
YEAR AFTER YEAR.
190
00:15:13,580 --> 00:15:17,183
THE STRUCTURES MIGHT LOOK
FRAGILE, BUT AT SIX FEET WIDE,
191
00:15:17,217 --> 00:15:21,421
TEN FEET DEEP, AND WEIGHING
1,100 POUNDS, THEY ARE STURDY
192
00:15:21,454 --> 00:15:24,824
ENOUGH TO WITHSTAND THEIR
EXTREME LOCATION.
193
00:15:24,858 --> 00:15:26,860
[MUSIC]
194
00:15:31,931 --> 00:15:33,633
DYLAN: THIS MOTHER IS
REBUILDING A NEST FOR HER
195
00:15:33,667 --> 00:15:37,604
UPCOMING ARRIVALS.
196
00:15:37,637 --> 00:15:40,674
TWIGS TO STRENGTHEN THE WALLS
AND FOLIAGE TO PROVIDE SOME
197
00:15:40,707 --> 00:15:43,710
MUCH-NEEDED SOFT FURNISHINGS.
198
00:15:45,845 --> 00:15:49,149
HOWEVER, OTHER STORKS AREN'T
QUITE AS PROACTIVE AT REPAIRING
199
00:15:49,182 --> 00:15:50,283
THEIR NESTS.
200
00:15:50,316 --> 00:15:54,087
SOME TURN TO THIEVERY.
201
00:15:54,087 --> 00:15:58,925
IT'S A RISKY MOVE AND THIS
CULPRIT HAS BEEN CAUGHT.
202
00:15:59,459 --> 00:16:04,464
THE ORIGINAL RESIDENT FIERCELY
DEFENDS HER NEST.
203
00:16:04,631 --> 00:16:08,501
STORKS HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO BREAK
OPPONENT'S WINGS DURING FIGHTS.
204
00:16:08,535 --> 00:16:10,537
[MUSIC]
205
00:16:16,276 --> 00:16:20,480
DYLAN: SOON, THE DISPUTE IS
SETTLED AND PEACE RESUMES.
206
00:16:20,513 --> 00:16:22,515
[MUSIC]
207
00:16:29,789 --> 00:16:32,692
DYLAN: THE FEMALE SETTLES INTO
HER NEST AND UP TO SIX EGGS ARE
208
00:16:32,726 --> 00:16:35,729
LAID OVER THE COURSE OF A WEEK.
209
00:16:41,067 --> 00:16:43,770
FOR THEIR FIRST THREE WEEKS, THE
YOUNG CAN'T REGULATE THEIR OWN
210
00:16:43,803 --> 00:16:48,508
BODY TEMPERATURE, SO ONE PARENT
SHELTERS THE BROOD WHILE THEIR
211
00:16:48,541 --> 00:16:52,545
PARTNER FORAGES FOR INSECTS AND
REPTILES.
212
00:16:58,318 --> 00:17:01,755
THE MALE RETURNS FROM A LONG DAY
HUNTING, REGURGITATING THE
213
00:17:01,788 --> 00:17:05,025
PARTIALLY DIGESTED FOOD FOR HIS
OFFSPRING FROM A STORAGE
214
00:17:05,058 --> 00:17:09,029
COMPARTMENT IN HIS THROAT.
215
00:17:09,029 --> 00:17:13,099
THE CHICKS CAN CONSUME UP TO 60
PERCENT OF THEIR OWN BODY WEIGHT
216
00:17:13,133 --> 00:17:15,168
EACH DAY.
217
00:17:15,201 --> 00:17:18,938
DESPITE THIS, ONLY HALF ARE
LIKELY TO SURVIVE, SINCE
218
00:17:19,039 --> 00:17:24,044
YOUNGER, WEAKER CHICKS STRUGGLE
TO COMPETE FOR FOOD.
219
00:17:28,615 --> 00:17:30,850
BUT STARVATION IS NOT THE ONLY
THREAT IN THIS REMOTE
220
00:17:30,884 --> 00:17:34,954
NEIGHBORHOOD.
221
00:17:35,055 --> 00:17:38,058
PREDATORS ARE LURKING.
222
00:17:40,593 --> 00:17:43,596
GULLS SOAR ABOVE AT THIS TIME OF
YEAR.
223
00:17:45,765 --> 00:17:48,301
THEY'RE KEEPING WATCH OVER THEIR
OWN CHICKS, BUT THEY ALSO HAVE
224
00:17:48,335 --> 00:17:52,939
THEIR EYES ON THE NEWLY HATCHED
STORKS.
225
00:17:52,972 --> 00:17:54,841
[MUSIC]
226
00:17:59,713 --> 00:18:01,915
DYLAN: THEY DIVE BOMB THE
STORKS, CAUSING PANIC IN THE
227
00:18:02,015 --> 00:18:06,686
NEST.
228
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,757
THEIR MOTHER STANDS GUARD, HER
BEAK AN EFFECTIVE DETERRENT.
229
00:18:10,790 --> 00:18:12,792
[MUSIC]
230
00:18:21,401 --> 00:18:24,037
DYLAN: EVENTUALLY, THE GULL
RETREATS, LEAVING THE STORK
231
00:18:24,037 --> 00:18:28,608
FAMILY SAFE FOR NOW.
232
00:18:28,641 --> 00:18:31,878
BATTERED BY ATLANTIC WAVES AND
CONSTANT WINDS, CHOOSING TO LIVE
233
00:18:31,911 --> 00:18:36,916
ON THIS COASTLINE BRINGS ITS
CHALLENGES.
234
00:18:38,284 --> 00:18:41,054
BUT THE STORKS BENEFIT FROM
MILDER TEMPERATURES AND AN
235
00:18:41,054 --> 00:18:43,356
ABUNDANCE OF FOOD.
236
00:18:43,390 --> 00:18:45,959
AND THEY NOW THRIVE HERE.
237
00:18:46,059 --> 00:18:48,061
[MUSIC]
238
00:18:54,067 --> 00:18:56,903
DYLAN: BY WORKING TOGETHER TO
PROTECT THEIR YOUNG, THOUSANDS
239
00:18:56,936 --> 00:19:00,573
OF GREETING PAIRS OF STORKS HAVE
TURNED THIS HOSTILE LOCATION
240
00:19:00,607 --> 00:19:03,610
INTO THEIR WINTER HOME.
241
00:19:06,713 --> 00:19:09,482
THANK YOU FOR JOINING OUR QUEST
TO FIND THE MOST INGENIOUS
242
00:19:09,516 --> 00:19:11,151
ANIMALS OF THE WILD.
243
00:19:11,184 --> 00:19:14,554
WHAT THESE CREATURES SOMETIME
LACK IN BRAWN, THEY MAKE UP FOR
244
00:19:14,587 --> 00:19:19,325
IN BRAINS, AND THEY ALL GO TO
THE HEAD OF NATURE'S CLASS.
245
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,696
WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME FOR
ANOTHER ADVENTURE ON "EARTH
246
00:19:22,729 --> 00:19:23,697
