YouTube comments do not reflect all nest events throughout the day, including chick feedings; therefore, the log is unfortunately incomplete.

Summary Highlights:
* Feedings:
Two feedings delivered by the adult male at 11:48 and 16:28 (the latter for a single fledgling present on the nest).
* Nest activity:
All three fledglings spent the night in the nest. Fledglings were active during the day, practicing flights, leaving the nest empty at times, and exploring surrounding branches.
* Adult behaviour:
The adult male visited the nest multiple times, bringing nest material (a branch) at 09:39, perching on lower branches, and delivering food.
* Note on female absence:
No sightings of the female parent were recorded. The female's absence is natural at this stage - all fledglings are capable of flight. After laying two clutches and successfully raising three chicks, she has likely departed to rest and begin her migration.
