observations

[Mark Kliene <>]

Hi all,

Just a few observations over the last week. I was surprised to find a
group of seven
Pied Currawongs in a tall gum in my neighbour's back yard in
Heidelberg,early morning just as i was going to work. They were being
harrassed by Ravens and stayed only briefly. I have never seen so many
at once here at home.

Yesterday afternoon had a brief walk through Gresswell Forest
Reserve,near the old Larundel Hospital, I was pleased to hear then find
a male Olive-Backed Oriole, high in the tree canopy-they have a curious
call!. Also found amusing a Pied Currawong attacking a Grey Kangaroo,in
an unrelenting manner. I am puzzled as to why?

Cheers,

Mark Kliene.
