We arrived about 10:40 this morning and immediately saw the male adult flying around the area. Shortly after, we found the adult female and finally the two fledglings flew in and returned to the nest hole.

We watched them be fed multiple times in the nest hole and then they both flew out. We also saw them be fed on multiple snags nearby.

We left about 12:40 and they were still in the area.

Thanks for all the previous information on their location.
