30 Oct 2021 12:15hrs to 12:45hrs. Male perched on branch of Eucalyptus mannifera near nesting hollow. About 5 mins later female emerged from nesting hollow. Male and female cuddled and caressed.
Male entered hollow.
Female preened her feathers and stretched wings, then sat still.
Male still in nesting hollow 10 minutes later when I left.
This nesting hollow had been used in some preceding years.
