User's notes
A female was sitting next to the hollow shown in sighting 4517386 (when two birds were complaining at something inside). She moved around a bit and sat in the entrance to the hollow for a while, talking quietly, which indicated to me that the male was inside. She flew to nearby trees a couple of times and called loudly. She seemed aware of my presence and I wondered if she was trying to draw my attention away from hollow. It was only as I walked away that the male finally appeared at the hollow entrance and quickly flew off. I was lucky to catch sight of this when I turned around.
