Location: North Adelaide
Australian Hobby (Falco longipennis) (1) The oval immediately east of the
Adelaide Acquatic Centre. I noticed a bird fly across the oval into the trees
that border Fitzroy Tce. It was holding something in its talons. When I
followed it I found a Hobby sitting on a dead tree with what looked like a
(very dead) Noisy Miner. I saw a Hobby in the same area a couple of weeks ago.
