At Watson dog park last evening, a pardalot (silhouetted, couldn't see
colouring) flew very fast from the canopy into a small hole in the trunk of the
second big old eucalypt down the main walk track from the Antill St car park.
Hole is about half way up on a large side branch and clearly visible from the
pylon side.
No sign of pardalots there this morning but a pair of galahs housekeeping in an
adjacent big eucalypt. The female was holding a leafy twig in her beak and
spent several minutes 'sweeping' all around the interior of the hollow before
settling on the nest. The male was perched nearby - avoiding the housework.
