Thanks for this record - Pairs are about to begin nesting and nesting birds that are being studied in the Campbelltown are also feeding on Persoonia linearis, close to their nest site. If you could please keep your eye out for any Gang-gang activity near hollows that would be greatly appreciated

We will keep an eye out. It's been a bumper year for geebungs and there are many hollow bearing trees so hopefully they hang around.
