User's notes
At one point, there were 12 to 15 gang gangs gathered together in two adjacent trees. It was then that I noticed a pair busily chewing and entering a new hollow (that I don't think has been identified previously?) There were one male and female chewing around the hollow, and another female chewing the bark on a nearby stump. In the fourth photo, a male is feeding (?) a female as they balance on a branch to the left.
