User's notes
I believe this is an non-monitored family with two newly fledged males (see feet cleaning, and very unsteady when landing and in the trees). My theory is that this may be the Track family - that the parents found another tree (I believe possibly a street tree near to where I saw them), and this time were successful in raising a couple of chicks. (unless the male fledglings are actually recognisable from the monitored nests). The one featured was fed multiple times by dad. Mum and dad also found a possum in a nearby hollow, growling, then shooing the fledgling away from the tree.
