Is this two pairs having a territorial dispute over a potential nesting hollow?

At first I thought this was a dispute over potential nesting hollows, of which there are several in this tree. It may also have been simply a fight over food. I’ve seen several species appearing to eat from the hollows in this tree including Gang-gangs and Galahs. So far, none have stayed for a long time.
