User's notes
3 nestlings successfully fledged after a big storm. All together on a higher branch than the nest. The half-peeled bark as the bottom of the nest pointed higher up (fairly bent down before) - showing how much pressure was on it with the big nestlings. Quite a risky nest to rely on a piece of bark to hold for the entire time.
