Tree 51. Arrived at 6.35pm. Both adults were present sitting in a tree nearby calling softly. After a while the male called loudly and the chick popped it’s head out. The male entered the hollow and feeding noises were heard for a short time. The male came back out and the adults flew off together. We left at 7.05pm.

Thanks for that - great that you got to see the chick - I think this is our 14th nest this year
