User's notes

I've clicked 'breeding' but we are pretty sure now that it isn't. Previously looked like two adults entering a nest to feed a chick, but with last night's rain, it looks like they are drinking water. Repeatedly bobbing their heads in and out, but due to filling up with water, don't need to go in as deep as before. No begging sounds to suggest a chick inside.
