Seven birds - three pairs and an extra, fighting in this tree. It has an area where birds have previously been seen chewing near a hollow, and a pipe-style hollow. There was a lot of screeching, wing flapping and opened beaks. One of the pics shows all 7 birds.

Thanks Lynday - pretty sure they are nesting somewhere in Greenleigh but so far haven't located where - a hollow to keep an eye on

Hi I had another audio recording of a pair in Feb but whoever checked it didn't confirm because I didn't have a photo. Can you find it and confirm it please?
