User's notes

Gang-gang pair nested in this tree for last two seasons. Pair was sitting above lorikeet hollow on other side of tree (same as for sighting 4209121 and 4203712), photos 2 and 3, when a Crimson Rosella landed on the branch outside their own previous nesting hollow. They both rushed to their hollow and the female went right into it. Photo 4 shows rosella watching at top left. Photos 1, 4 and 5 show Gang-gangs at their own hollow. They flew off shortly after.
