Would appreciate postings of any other juveniles within the next two weeks - Peak fledgling time at known nests is now.
User's notes
Possibly three males (two juvenile) and two females. Patch of old hollow-bearing Eucalypts (E.bridgesiana?).

Yes two is the usual number but we have recorded from 1-3 chicks per nest - while there is a photo of 4 fledglings in the Botanic Gardens

Just read about 'water trees' and I think this was one. The male looked like he was drinking. There are good nest hollows nearby.
