Having not been out since then, I just did a quick visit to Kambah Pool. The Tawny Frogmouth nest, presumed mother with two chicks are still going well. Looks
like the chicks should leave the nest this week. The presumed father still in the same roost spot. The Grey Butcherbird nest with two chicks, I saw both parents feeding them. I thought they would be close to fledging. Only after about 5 minutes I noticed one
other young one, with a very stubby tail, perched in an adjoining tree. One parent came and sat beside it.

A Tawny Frogmouth nest with chicks virtually at the Kambah Pool car park in (I think) the same tree as last year. And a Grey Butcherbird nest with chicks about
200 metres further along, at the Bullen range sign along the Kambah Pool track.
