User's notes
Birds seem to be using this hollow regularly to drink from. See also sighting 4433415. There seems to be a group of 12 that move around together but there are usually also others calling nearby. The group usually contains 3 adult males, one of which I suspect is Baldy with his crest regrown. Juveniles are still begging for feeds occasionally and adults of both sexes respond, but feeding is usually brief.
