User's notes

A pair of Glossy Black cockatoos have been seen flying over and heading for a gully at the top of the National Park every afternoon. I have followed them and have heard but not seen a young glossy begging from the direction of large trees in the gully. On this afternoon the young glossy flew out of the gully and landed high up in a tree next to the road. Myself and my neighbour watched the parents feed the young one, then they all flew off into the gully
