User's notes

While there were at least Four Crimson Rosellas in the area, this one spent at least half an hour trying to chew the bark inside and outside of this hollow, in which Spotted Pardalotes were feeding chicks. It eventually gave up but came back with its mate and checked out a couple of other hollows before leaving again.
