This active Australian Magpie nest is in the same Eucalyptus melliodora that the Swift Parrots visited back on 1 May.  Not sure if it contains the hair that was taken by the magpie a few days ago as there are a few active nests in the neighbourhood.  It was only when we looked at the photo did we notice the coat hanger in the tree branch at the bottom right of the picture.  Not sure how that got there.
