After abut 3/4 of an hour on the nest, Mum took off after a lot of head rocking whilst peering into the bay. You could then hear the cogs ticking over in Aussie's brain. She'd eye the nest, then scan the bay and the trees, looking to see if Mum was watching from a distance. Eventually Aussie couldn't resist the urge to get onto the nest any longer and with considerable fanfare, flew onto the nest, looking around nervously for a few seconds before settling to some quiet preening of feathers and dignity.
