A pair of Sulphur Crested Cockatoos checking out hollow #74. The Gang Gangs have not been sighted there since and it appears that all birds have abandoned the site due to its poor quality or close proximity to humans or maybe that Tawny Frogmouths have a nest two trees away. Gang Gangs were sighted further up the mountain on the same day.

I doubt they'd be bothered by the frogmouths

The Gang Gangs were once seen happily chewing bark very close to the Frogmouth nest.
