Thank you, Burn and Lee. I'm more than happy to keep sharing.

As always, I have to crop heavily to show the chick, otherwise it wouldn't be able to be distinguished from the sticks and detritus is in nest. I took this shot about four hours ago.

Someone asked if the parents ever left the nest unattended. Well, now I can say, yes they do. Both adult birds were away for about twenty minutes this afternoon.
