On Friday 27 December I went for a morning walk before work (I was one of the 
2% of the population who worked on Friday) and for whatever reason I headed in 
a different direction.  Just as well that I did, as I found an injured 
Brush-tailed Possum presumably hurt by a car.  What a co-incidence that this 
was the day I chose to walk somewhere different.

Took it around to my local WIRES lady, to find a huge Common Koel immature 
chasing a Red Wattlebird.  The wattlebird was trying to get away and I guess 
was up to the stage of trying to encourage "its" young to fend for itself.

Hope you had a lovely Christmas with family and friends:  best regards for 
1997.

Happy Birding
