User's notes
This pair were chewing by the dam for a couple of hours. I have not noticed the female before - no head feathering, but tail barring indicating she is a maturer female. Around 5.00pm, I heard the birds call, and followed their call in the same direction as a sole male I had heard call and fly to on 5th April, then saw again with Dotty pair on 16th April. I am wondering if this new pair are feeding a chick in a hollow somewhere. At this time, I also two other pair of glossy blacks, including the Dotty pair.
