Two pairs of gang gangs sitting in tree, entering and leaving hollows, calling to each other

I have observed birds in this tree in previous years and suspect it may be a water source rather than nest tree but will check it out this year

That makes sense - I have observed the tree repeatedly but haven't seen them there again.
