User's notes
Female and male; there was a second pair sitting in eucalyptus trees nearby, second photo shows one of the pair; I think they were all adults. Mt Majura had an influx of Glossy Black C's after the 2003 bushfires; we counted up to 14 GBC at the lower dam off Blue Metal Road coming for an evening drink.
