Steve,
 
very interesting. Had Glossies many years ago on the western side of Mt Ainslie near the transformer station, and on another occasion signs of feeding in the same area.
 
In the past I have seen Glossies often roosting rel. close to their evening drinking spot, but not always, especially if disturbed before settling  for the night, and then they can cover some distance to a different roost site. My guess would be similar to yours, that they may have roosted rel. close to the fire and decided to better relocate.
