Thanks Sam we have had two large flocks recently one in the south and one in the north - but they could be the same birds

I am amazed to be told "Your sighting is a new species for the following locations: Callum Brae" which is a birdwatching hotspot. I had the same message for the nearby magpies (which I thought might have been too common to record).
The message for everyone is to get out there and report everything you see.

Alisterus scapularis

Thanks Lisa - It is in the vicinity of where Gang-gangs have nested before - the chip looks more like the work of Sulphur Crested Cockatoos who tend to evacuate strips of wood as opposed to Gang-gangs who excavate more chunky bits so perhaps both species have interest in this hollow - but would be interested if you do catch Gang-gangs excavating strips.
