Hi, I have heard that females with young will sometimes come out during the day but 3pm seems very early. It’s usually evening by the time they come out, even if it’s still light. I think the earliest I saw the female in my garden was about 7pm, but that’s when the babies were still very small and not coming out the nest yet. Is the youngster you’ve seen definitely with the female, or could they belong to someone else? Hope someone can come up with real advice, cos I’m not at all sure.
