Finally some photos from today. We actually saw the whole family today, ma, pa and Harmony. the birds typically hang out in trees about 50 m from the nest which is very exposed. I assume it's cooler - typically by 6.00 pm Harmony is either on a branch of the tree the nest is in or on the nest. I think she's looking for or hoping for a meal; in spite of catching the blow fish we don't believe she's caught anything substantial; more on this later. For the first hour or so Margaret and I scrambled up steep embankments to get photos of ma and pa. Ma was a bit vocal, we got quite close and between us I guess got some great 'portrait' shots - here's one of them.
