User's notes
The Baldys seem to have settled on this hollow and are spending a lot of time working on it. They are however regularly spooked by galahs that visit the same tree (pink arrows indicate galahs and red arrows GGs in the second and third images). They either fly to a nearby tree and watch or return to their old hollow. They often growl into the old hollow and I have never seen them enter it since the cockatoo visit shown in sighting 4598801. Sometimes they seem happy to sit on the edge and preen (sighting 4598810).
