User's notes

This Galah was attempting to put a eucaluyptus twig into a nesting hollow. Perhaps distracted by its audience, though we were a fair distance away, it couldn't manage and eventually dropped the twig. It sat at the hollow for a further five minutes or so before flying off, no doubt in search of other nesting material.
