Long-billed Corella
There were a few of these guys lower down than the swifties. They were demolishing the new growth on the tree trunks in quite a methodical manner as well as ripping pieces of bark off the trunk. I imagine there is a purpose...
An interesting thing I learned while looking up the distribution of these birds is that originally they were confined to the extreme south-east of the country but now have populations in quite a few locations right up into Qld, central Australia and WA probably established from aviary escapees.
