Conteúdo: 	White waterbirds form nest colonies in winter (July-September) with low water levels in the Bolivian-Brazilian "Pantanal", dark-colored species separate colonies earlier in the fall as waters recede. This phenomenon of white versus black "viveiros" (nurseries), which has entered into local folklore, is probably due to white nesting waterbirds using conspicuous plumage to locate others, fishing communally at drying pools in winter, while inconspicuous dark birds fish best separately in deeper receding waters or next to vegetation earlier in the fall.
