Two circling in the general area, one in the nest appeared to be at the stage of flapping and jumping but not quite flying yet.

@jmcleod or @MichaelBedingfield could you please supress the location for this sighting? Nesting is a sensitive time, and I would hate for this nest to receive more attention than it can handle. Thanks!

@RangerBen apologies, I thought sightings were suppressed automatically if they were marked as a nesting site. I'll keep that in mind for any future ones.

Thanks @jmcleod they’re supposed to be. So an odd glitch perhaps? Thanks heaps, appreciate it!

The location is automatically hidden from the public when the Nesting site box is ticked. This one is hidden too as far as I can see.

@MichaelBedingfield I edited the sighting yesterday to explicitly tick the "suppress location" box, so it certainly should be hidden now. I'm guessing @RangerBen could see it before I edited it - or does @RangerBen have extra privileges to see hidden locations?
