Today on Mt Ainslie I was surprised to find three chough nests, all in close
proximity, being tended by the same group of birds. As I walked from one tree
to the next, some of the birds flew along too, making adjustments to the edge
of the nests or exhibiting other behaviour (eg wing-fanning with open beak).
It appears that a second clutch of eggs for the season might be on the way?
