Pair of Gang-gangs eating Persoonia linearis, seen in the same parcel of bushland about 550m from sighting on 13 Oct 2021. I'm guessing this is the same pair.

Thanks - A single female feeding during the day is probably the most likely sign that there is a nest nearby.

So far we've only seen them together. We see or hear them almost every day although we're often too slow to take a pic. This morning they were about 400m in other direction from 13/10 sighting so still covering a biggish area over multiple properties.
