Thanks - Is this the same tree as https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4356573? If so then I think when I tried to check the hollow late last year I was looking at the wrong hollow.

I don’t think I’ve recorded a sighting in this tree before - I couldn’t actually access the sighting you referenced for some reason. This tree is just inside the boundary of FGC slightly to the right & above where it is marked on the map.

Also they didn’t seem to be in or near a hollow from what I could see. I’ll keep checking out the tree in case I notice more activity there

Thanks if you do notice a hollow and it is below 12m - will try and get teh pole camera to view it, in late October or November
