User's notes
There was a single bird on the nest with no other choughs around. The bird was panting, it was hot day with the temperature at that time still over 35º Celsius. Periodically it would look into the nest like it may have been doing something in the nest. No other choughs appeared to be around and this bird did not seem bothered by our presence.
