At 0915 this morning the fledgling was on the FSP nest with both parents nearby.  After a few minutes it took off for a couple of short circuits, and then headed off in  a straight line towards Kellys.  It flies competently and at a distance is hard to distinguish from the adults.  It is no larger than, perhaps slightly shorter-tailed than, the adult (light morph) male, so is probably a male.  With a good look it can be seen to have rather bright rufous underparts and nape.
