This is why sandgrouse nest so far from water holes.

这就是沙鸡巢离水的原因。

60 miles away, in the heart of the desert, sandgrouse chicks are hatching.

离水九十六公里的沙漠中心，沙鸡的雏鸟正在孵化。

Again and again, the male sandgrouse risk their lives in order to collect water for their chicks.

复一，雄沙鸡都要冒着生命危险来给雏鸟采水。

The sandgrouse's coloring also acts as camouflage, but this bird has another adaptation: special feathers on its chest and belly that can soak up water at watering holes.

沙鸡的颜色也可以起到伪装的作用，但这种鸟还有另一种适应能力：胸部和腹部有特殊的羽毛，可以吸收水里的水。
