This afternoon, about 6pm, one of the juvenile wfhs flew out of the nesting tree, twice. The 2nd time it actually perched for a minute or two on a neighbouring gum tree. Noisy miners harrassed it. It returned to the nest tree to sit beside its sibling

Rotted body of chick which died has fallen to the ground. All edible parts were gone and just the skeleton remained
