User's notes

Not sure if it is past nesting season but these two were having a barney in the long grass.. I heard a loud commotion and saw flashes of white in the grass, then these two flew out. One flew away but the second flew back to the tree next to the dam. I lost track of it but later saw it inspecting a hollow. Not sure if it had been in the hollow and was now emerging.
