There did not appear to be a tunnel entrance, but the birds were certainly 
going in and out of a small hole in the nest.  They led us to the nest and it 
is very visible.  Go into Kelly Road on the 2nd entrance, from Monaro H'way and 
proceed down to the right.  After a hundred or so metres, the creek comes in 
close to the road.  There is an exotic plum tree on the RHS.  The nest was not 
far past that, on the RHS and not hidden, about 4 mtrs, across the fence

I have just looked at the Annual Bird Report 2009--2010 and Michael Lenz 
reported dependent young on May 29th

Once again I should have had my camera
