User's notes

Two pairs were in trees about 20 m apart. They both seemed to want to be in the northernmost and larger tree. One pair claimed it while the other pair flew to the tree 20 m to the south. They then joined in a tree in the centre where there was much calling before the “dominant” pair returned to the northernmost tree. Photos show first the dominant male then his partner. Other three photos are of the other pair. Note the crest of the other male still had some black in it.
