Yesterday on eBird Marnix reported a female Bassian Thrush being fed while sitting on a nest. Nests with sitting birds are rarely reported so I took the opportunity this morning to capture this feeding behaviour, including the calls made. See https://www.hbw.com/ibc/1513036

As you can tell from then video, the nest is well hidden.

Thanks to Marnix for the report.
