Where Do Corellas Nest?

How do Corellas nest?

Long-billed Corellas form monogamous pairs and both parents prepare the nest, incubate the eggs and feed the young. Nests are made in the hollows of large old eucalypts, and sometimes in cavities of loose gravelly cliffs (scoria). The eggs are laid on a lining of decayed wood.

What eats Little Corella?
