I heard the male call above my head when I was working in the backyard so rushed inside to get the camera and was quite thrilled at what unfolded. Lucky, lucky. I thought you'd be interested. Don't know where their hollow is.

I do have a gut feeling that Gang-gangs mate close to where they are planning to nest and have had a few hollow of interests listed in Aranda Bushland
