Kevin we are particularly interested in observations of Gang Gangs entering or looking into hollows, if you click the nesting site box when recording the sighting the location information of a possible breeding hollow won't be public knowledge.

I hope I clicked the correct box reporting the 2nd pair I saw today.

Kevin, many thanks for the record. Can you please tell me if the female had a crook eye or was it just blinking when the photo was taken. I do not like the condition of the female and am wondering if there is more going on than just a bad hair day. Chris

Chris, I was rushing to get to an appointment and took just 2 photos, neither great. I have enlarged a detail of the first photo and fear you are right about the eye.
