User's notes

I have been checking this tree when I pass since hollow sightings 42377962, 4237653, 4237649 and 4236143. No daytime sightings since, but at dusk most evenings there seem to be at least four in this tree, with much calling. This photo was taken at 7.53 pm (camera was not on daylight saving time), when a pair had just flown off up the hill towards Downes Place and this male seemed to be alone. I hope to get a better photo but am going away shortly.
