4 birds in tall eucalypt paying particular attention to a hollow in broken limb. After a few minutes watching I observed several currawongs arrive and "swoop" the gang gangs. The currawongs also investigated a nest of another bird further along the branch.

Thanks for this sighting I put the pole camera down two hollows in this tree but both were empty - would appreciate any more sightings you may observe
