Very interested in any observations of mating Gang-gangs as it is appears to be a good indicator of a nearby nest.

Thanks Alison - to date we have only observed mating within tens of metres of a nest tree. I am hoping that you may have observed the birds in and around a hollow in a eucalypt nearby. Or if not could you please keep an eye out for such activity
Cheers Michael Mulvaney
