User's notes

This pair is definitely nesting in the hollow next to this branch. I have seen them there on several evenings about 7.30pm and saw one go right into the hollow last night (photos too dark). I saw them at this hollow several times earlier this year even though I don't go this way often. There is another nesting hollow about 40 metres up the hill where I have seen the galah in the hollow on several evenings this week (added last week as a separate sighting).
