User's notes

This was a morning walk where I was super fortunate to see 35-plus individual gang gangs, over the course of an hour. The female has a small red feather above her right eye, which I hope may make her identifiable in future sightings? Around this location (200m radius?) there were four pair at various trees and separate hollows, each pair chewing on branches, chewing around hollows, or entering hollows. All very vocal and vigorous!
