I understand that for several years a mixed pair (Little and Long-billed) of Corellas has been observed at Callum Brae. In a walk out there yesterday, we note one of each species inspecting different hollows a meter or so apart. It wasn't clear whether they were a pair or not ... but when I sent this picture to David Clark, his interpretation was that she was telling him off and this was definitive proof that they were a couple.
