Where's My Mum by byronbackyard
This juvenile Osprey from the Belongil Estuary in Byron Bay is spreading her wings ready for flight. It seems clear that she finds that scary and squawks for her mum after few hopping flights around the nest and after going to the edge of the nest innumerable times and changing her mind. She did fly the next day!
