In Blakely's Red Gum, judging by fruit & bark. They appeared to be squabbling?

Actually this looks like a father feeding one of last years fledglings. I note the April date of this sighting but we have parents still feeding last seasons young recently reported. You are right about it being a Blakley's Red gum - thanks for teh record

Thanks Mike. That makes sense. Glad I included the second pic to give a more complete indication of the behaviour I observed.
