Fascinating Laurie - theres been a few reports of Tyto in the Brisbane city 
area and if memory serves me right the suggestion one was a Masked Owl a while 
back - it just goes to show that even in the heart of the CBD there are such 
birds who perhaps profit from good rodent numbers which is often the way in 
cities. cheers David Taylor
