User's notes
The male was sighted checking a hollow in a tree and getting quite agitated (possibly a possum in the hollow?) whilst the female was perched on an adjacent branch. The male eventually flew back to the female to produce this wonderful interaction between them. Thanks to Barbara for the initial sighting.
