Location 1. On private property. The owners had been seeing a family of glossies come to a small creek for drinks in the evenings. They invited the photographer (LSH) to visit to hopefully see the glossies & get some photos. The juvenile's calling alerted everyone to the arrival of the family! The family landed in a eucalypt overlooking the creek, but didn't fly down to the creek. The juvenile stopped calling. The family was still in place when the photographer left. While visiting with the owners, the glossy family flew past and landed in a nearby eucalypt snag - location 2, a separate upload.
