Tree damage caused by Galahs

  My husband saw a Galah cause the damage shown on the gum tree on enclosed photo. The tree is in a neighbour's garden. It appears to have been caused by only one bird and the tree is a brittle gum (Eucalyptus mannifera). The main damage extends a fair way round the tree both sides but I could see that it did not extend right round it.  Has anyone seen Galahs or other birds doing this?
