WE had 4 GGs visit this afternoon for a drink from the birdbath. The group was 2 males and 2 females including a young male and possibly a young female. It was interesting to see both the adult male and adult female feed the young . How long do you think adults feed the young?

Thanks feeding on Eucalyptus globulus app bicostata which makes up about a third of the Gang-gangs diet in Canberra

Cheers Micheal! Yeah they really heavily seem to favour that type of tree in that grassy woodland... Can't remember if I put the pictures up but i watched a group of 15 adults and juveniles feeding on a different tree of the same type several weeks ago
