An interesting idea, Con.  I didn’t know they did that.  I’ll consult HANZAB.  I‘ll also explore the area that I saw the bird fly to.

Might they be building roosting nests?

A Red-browed Finch turned up in a large lerp-guzzling MFF at my home this morning (lots of Tasmanian Silvereyes amongst them).  But it was carrying a long grass stalk.  Why at this stage of the season, I wonder?  And how should I record it, as NB?  It is more in the nature of parrot-like IH behaviour.
