The first time I have seen Baldy since 17 September. He was in the company of a female wearing a GPS tracker and they were both feeding on Acacia (boormanii?) pods. At one point he chased off another male that arrived. After a while they both flew up into a nearby eucalypt where they sat comfortably together.

Thanks Cath - it has reminded me to check with Stacey to see if we can use the tracker data to find their nest
