User's notes
Baldy was pulling 'grubs' out of the branch he was sitting on and eating them. A female was on the other side of the tree. They flew off together and I saw them again nearby about 15 minutes later. She was at a hollow very close to where I recently saw galahs apparently nesting (sighting 4588607), and he was watching from a nearby tree. She went into the hollow and appeared to be doing some work in there. Just after she reappeared at the entrance a pair of galahs arrived and both GGs flew off. I found them later at last year's hollow, shown in the next sighting.
