@MichaelMulvaney - one of last season's Gang-gang nests - where a nestling was sighted in the hollow by Chris Davey

Thanks Helen - The Wood Ducks should be getting ready to vacate the hollow with their young and hopefully the Gang-gangs will then move in. Housing vacancies don't last long.

I hope the Gang-gangs are able to use it again

As the name suggests this is what happened at Duck Hollow on Red hill and there are at least another two of our hollows in which both wood ducks and Gang-gangs are known to nest
