User's notes

In the space of 15 minutes or so, this pair visited, chewed and entered 3 hollows. I was very surprised to discover the first hollow, which is a broken tree trunk of a youngish (?) tree. I could hear the pair talking, but could not figure out where the female was, and jumped when I saw her at head height. The second hollow is a dead tree, which I have seen gang gangs check out previously.
