User's notes
This was the last time the juvenile male attended our bird feeding station with his parents (although he never ate from it himself). We did see him briefly sitting on a powerline about a week later, but we havn't seen him since, even though his parents keep attending. Unless there was some mishap, we are assuming that he has become fully independent from his parents.

Update: Young male observed on morning of 17 May 2021, so he is still hanging out with mum and dad, but on a pretty long leash.
