Track family?! No sign of juvenile. Male was in the hollow, could be faintly heard chewing, before emerging.

Thanks Lisa - I think the young have been told to rake off by now - interested if you see any groups of young birds only

I think @CT1000 saw a couple of juveniles around there recently - male and female?

Yeah I saw a group of at least 3 gang gangs 1 older female and 2 juveniles 1 male 1 female. I do have some photos but not the best for id except maybe the young male.
