User's notes
Female gang gang hanging out near hollow at dusk. Then as I was standing there (looking at my phone) saw another male gang gang flying off away from the hollow. Female gang gang then approached the entrance to the hollow and looked like she was entering - but quite dark by this stage and hard to see. So looked like changeover.

Thanks Flutteringsparrow. I am keeping a close eye on this one as well and have observed similar changeover but at about 6:30pm. Hope that a chick pokes its head out soon
