User's notes

Possible nesting hollow. Pair defending itself from attack by noisy miners for about 20 minutes, then 3 cockatoos arrived. Pair stood firm for five minutes until swooped by a cockatoo, then flew to nearby tree and watched anxiously before flying off five minutes later. Flutteringsparrow2 and I have heard them in this tree before and there is a recently chewed hollow. Mobile phone photo 5 added for geolocation but it shows tree in someone's garden so not accurate, moved pointer to big remnant tree with pair in it shown in photo 3.
