Media notes
The adult in this photo is the female. She has some grayish feathers on her back - not visible in this photo, but probably from an injury. Saw the birds copulate on a previous visit, which established her sex.
Observation details
2 adults were bringing food to the upper nest hole. One chick was visible, sticking its head out and begging for food. Could not tell if there might be a second chick. 2 older fledglings from the first brood are still in the clearing, but staying away from the nest tree. The adults were not feeding them, but were also not trying chase them away.
