User's notes

Photos 1 & 2 taken early. Mum was in a tree nearby attempting her best to look like a branch while dad and the chicks were happy to look down at us. Photos 3 - 5 taken a few hours later after our bird walk and they are all now trying to look like tree branches. Mum has moved over to join the family with the two chicks between the parents.
