Nice pics again. Raptor whisperer. ;) Looks like an older immature which is a bit early or really late for these birds. Then again all the birds seem to be breeding when they can of late! Keep up the excellent photography Roy.

Thanks for that, I was wondering whether the J'bra pair had a secret nest and nesting success, but hard to say with any certainty....
