User's notes

I have separated the three birds into three sightings so I can add more photos. Very lucky to come upon them feeding and they allowed me to stay, moving from tree to tree around me. most entertaining was this immature bird who nearly fell thru canopy trying to reach gum nuts; first with tongue and then tried to remove left claw to reach them and ended up upsidedown and in a 5 minute spot of bother to manoever back upright again and eventually reach those nuts in an embarrassing way!
