User's notes
Angel 4th Sightin. Sighting from NB. With male & juvenile.
Photographer's notes: The female munched without pause, no matter what. Dad was slightly unsettled and
moved closer to the juvenile. Then, it settled into serious preening and I think had a snooze.
Very agitated when there was a nearby magpie ruckus, but then moved back to the female
and continued feeding. Juvenile remained in the eucalyptus tree throughout, moved
between a couple of branches during magpie ruckus. It wasn't begging, wasn't fed by an
adult and didn't go into any of the allocas. It seemed to be biting a small eucalyptus
twig/leaves frequently.
