G'day all

Amusing phone conversation with my father (in Heidelberg Heights, Melbourne)
yesterday.  We were chatting away when he saw a Little Raven land in his garden
and walk to the fish pond (containing three small goldfish).  Raven probes for a
fish and dad races outside to chase it away.  Raven flies a short distance with
a fish in beak, drops fish into the garden, dad retrieves fish and puts it back
into pond apparently unharmed.

I've never heard of Ravens fishing before but now that they know there are fish
to get I suspect the fish will all go quite soon.

Cheers

Steve
