User's notes
This pair finished chewing, and flew to a nearby branch for some allopreening - with all their beauty on show. Of interest is that both the male and female cleaned their beaks on this branch, and ripped off some of the bark. When I looked at the photos, it seems that this may be a branch that they visit often, as the bark and underside is torn and jagged compared to the bark closer to the trunk.
