Is the Gang-gang perching on teh edge of teh possible hollow or is it above them?

Hi Michael - on the edge.

A male and female have been spending a lot of time around this tree over the past week - but so have some larger birds and its quite a large hollow - so maybe the hollow is a water source ?
