Does anyone else have these (for want of a better description ) family 
reunions (maybe?) every so often when many other birds come capturing 
insects (I presume) and delivering them to the chicks or parent birds in the 
nest?
I have seen this a number of times over the years and wonder if that is 
maybe a way to keep a family unit going.  More than the usual visits this 
year. It seems maybe they are timing the fledges...??
Any input on this please?
