In our park in Kambah (Severne Crescent) there has been a war each breeding
season for the last 4 years between Kookaburras and mynas.  They were
fighting over a single breeding hollow.  Year 1 mynas won, Year 2 and 3
Kookaburras won and successfully raised 5 young in the two years.  Year 4 I
couldn't see any bird using that particular hollow, have not seen the Kookas
since.
