Christine do you happen to have an image of the young male and adult female together - this male appears to have a very white beak - indicating nesting nearby - but sometimes the light can play tricks with the beak colour so having teh female to compare with would be great

Sorry Michael, no, the female did not come close to the young bird while I was watching.
