I wonder if the tone of the drumming indicates how suitable (wide/narrow and deep/shallow) the nest is, thus, attracting the female to the better nest.

perhaps he's just showing her he's found a nest with good structural integrity, would explain why he has to test drumsticks, if they're too soft they'll break or crumble like a an old wooden hammer

in my zoology lecture they said that studies show that the tapping is not just random, which is what your hypothesise would show, but a deliberate rhythm.

That's all part of it, I'm sure You can hear the health of the tree, nest site, the wood used to pad the nest and the strength it took to get that big hard stick...she will hear all that I'm sure

@@PlanYourLift I don't see how your hypothesis excludes the hypothesis as posed by Leslie. The fact that he's drumming and the rhythm could go hand in hand. Probably even better if it's rhythmic, as almost all creatures have a sense of rhythm.

I tested Palm's in a lab and they don't drum if they are given a guitar. They play, smells like teen spirit.

This is the result of evolutionary pressure. Palm cockatoos who go into guitar stores and play Stairway or Smoke on the Water do not survive to breed.
