Media notes
Calls taking place between the pair just before a food exchange. The female was closer giving the longer calls, the male gave shorter calls in rapid succession. Various types of food are singing in the background.
Observation details
Both adults and young (minimum of 4), the flight feathers a tails are coming. Tails project an inch but no more than two.... today was the first I saw them up high on the lip of the nest, flapping, stretching and preening, nearly looking like Merlins. The parents had prey exchange at the usual spot, much vocalization took place before the actual exchange, from male to female. The female returned to the nest 12 minutes later. The fed actively.
