I am not sure how unusual this is but....
.. out in Goorooyaroo Nature Reserve there appears to be at least four pairs of Striated Pardalote nesting in the side of a dry creek bed.
Although I only ever saw 3 birds at once, I saw a bird enter each of four "nest" holes. At one stage  there was two birds in one hole,
at another time there were two birds at a different hole. The nests were spread out over maybe twenty metres.
