Thanks JubeyJubes we have suspected Gang -gang are nesting un this area but have never found a nest here - I am hoping in October November and December you may be able to visit this tree and check for any Gang-gang activity

☺️ I took a photo here and logged it some moons ago. They’re often around here. Very easy for me to keep an eye on, so will see if they are there in Oct for you.

Thanks - we were probably following up on your earlier photo when we checked trees in this area last season - good luck you can find a guide to the nesting behaviours to look out for at
