User's notes

On recent day observations, the hollow seems empty. It is only late in the day, as evening falls, that I have seen the pair around the hollow. Tonight I was fortunate to see this one (the female?) spend a bit of time chewing around the hollow, then, after 15 mins or so, she entered the hollow and the sound of nestlings feeding was audible (and recordable - will post recording).
