Look who's back

and grown quite a bit. I was so surprised to see two dikkops at their tree and thought it was mum and dad. On closer inspection, it was junior and mum! The colouring fooled me as it is quite a bit darker now and has lost a lot of fluff.
I googled and found out that they do not migrate but occasionally wander off somewhere close by.
