The Baldys and another pair together in the same tree. The second pair were sitting in the scar (last photo) when the Baldys flew in. They all sat around in the branches for a while before the original pair flew off and the Baldys visited the scar. Their interactions seemed quite friendly. The scar didn't seem to be a true hollow.

Yes Cath I poled this tree and it is not a true hollow nor much of a water tree so not sure why they keep going there
