The pair are seen in the final image. This sighting mainly shows the larger bird which was sitting higher up in the tree. The smaller bird which was lower down the tree in a fork is shown in following sighting 4469164. Both birds were observed to have small red mites crawling over them. Thanks to Barbara for the initial sighting.
