Reporting where you see, the distinctive looking "Baldy" is telling us much about Gang-gang nest hollow selection and movement across the breeding season.
User's notes
The Baldys seem to have been bullied out of last year's hollow by the cockatoos, which now seem to have lost interest too. Since 12 October either Baldy or partner has been inside the new hollow every time I have checked. I have witnessed several changeovers (as shown in the second photo) and they have all been very cautious and very quick so I am assuming they are incubating eggs.
