User's notes
The first to fledge from RBT was the female. These are photos from the first two days after fledging, including the day she fledged. She flew down the hill to a smaller tree, settling on a thin branch not very far up the tree. Dad and mum came and groomed her, and cursorily fed her, then flew off. The next morning she had moved to another small tree, where she seemed to spend most of the day. The following day she had moved again, back to her fledge tree. Photo 3 shows her dripping some moisture from just being fed. The fifth picture shows her sleeping - I was interested to see how much fledglings sleep, and, of course, it makes sense - they're very young.
