User's notes
Stevie and her daughter. I saw Flossy with the two juvenile males from 13/1/25, when one of the males flew at her playfully (fifth photo), and she flew off to a tree about 200m away. She was by herself for a while, before mum (Stevie) appeared. Mum fed Flossy, then settled in a nearby tree to feed. Mum flew off. Dad came in and fed her, then left. Flossy playfully dropped from branch to branch, talking to herself, chewing leaves, nuts, twigs, crawling along thin branches. No parent had returned by the time we had to leave (about an hour later).
