In 2010 I monitored the nest of an Owlet Nightjar, which was 900mm below top of 90mm internal diameter Fibre Cement flue.

Two chicks were successfully raised.

Refer to the link below for a brief report with lots of photos.

The birds did not reuse the flue the following year.

Round the Bend Conservation Co-operative is in the Bend of Islands, 33km north east of Melbourne.
