Each year there is interest in this hollow, but each year nothing happens. Camera inspection indicated possum part-time inhabitant. Of note is the crest of the female - I think it is paler than usual (I have other photos of what I believe to be the same bird) at different trees and hollows in the same area. If this is a distinguishing feature, I've called her Silvertop.
