User's notes
I believe this to be the RBT family, due to the dark feathering of the female fledgling, and the relatively light red head colouring of the young male. The family spent 2-4 weeks in one area, resting, being fed, playing, literally stretched their wings. Then moved across the road for another 2-3 weeks. I'm unsure where they are now, but I've also not been out and about as much.
