User's notes
4 birds, 4 photos, not necessarily of each bird. They were flying around in a thick euc. (probably E bicostata). I previously posted photos on 22 July 24 in the same location. There were 7 birds that day.
There is a hollow there that looks promising.

Thanks Rob is teh tree with teh hollow isolated or connected by canopy to many other trees - wondering about the possibility of placing a possum guard on it

I think you could get away with 2 possum guards. The tree is next to a similar sized tree and then there is a small amount of daylight between the canopies.
