Bush stone curlew in Five Dock

Perhaps in situations like this we should be more "proactive" (I hate that 
word).  We could have alerted Council's environment officer when the bird 
turned up and alerted him/her to the danger of dog attack.  Then a ranger 
may have been posted to police dogs off leashes (against the law except in 
some areas).  Wise in hindsight but a lesson for the future maybe. 
Apologies in advance to anyone who may have taken such action.
