The female from Track hollow. I'm not sure what this bush is - a hakea? The female was determined to get a nut from the branch, but they must be very hard and firm. She pulled and ground at the stem for minutes (I videoed some of it). Eventually she prised one from the stem - only to watch it drop immediately onto the ground. After a little while she gave up and flew off.
