New hollow - Sandy 3? Although I'm pretty sure I've recorded this hollow in past years, this year this pair are super-intent on hollowing out the hollow to useable size (I saw them both disappear into the hollow). The 4th photo shows the industry with which they work - the female was in the hollow, kicking out shavings high in the air. The photos show her covered in those shavings. They were there for at least an hour. Fingers crossed!
