Pair of Gang-Gangs feeding on a Eucalypt. I noticed them at 11:45am and they were still there when I left at 2:10pm. I’ve added photos of the gum nuts being dropped to aid tree ID. The tree was marked with a metal tag '7009' and given it's location the species may be recorded.

Thanks eating Apple Box nuts - interesting sighting I suspect they are nesting between here and the river somewhere
