User's notes
Gang-gangs often gather in this dead tree at dusk before flying to nesting hollows or further up hill to blue gums to roost. On this evening, a group of six arrived (photos) before flying off uphill in pairs. Just as they left, four more flew in, calling, but soon flew off to other trees.
