User's notes
Female nestling and female adult at hollow recorded in previous sightings. Note female nestling is darker grey with less well-developed crest. Both were chewing bark before nestling called softly to mother as if begging and mother disappeared into hollow with nestling. Feeding noises heard, then mother emerged and sat guarding hollow entrance. Did not see male nestling or male adult.
