Early today I pulled in to the Fyshwick sewage ponds to try to sneak a peek
at the Grey Goshawk, but no joy there.
I did, however, see a Brown Goshawk quartering the area where bunnies
burrow on borrowed time as bait layers bring about their banishment.
A movement along the top of the eastern boundary fence (about 60m from
where I stood) caught my attention. Through the binos I made out a Spotted
Harrier perching on the fence and being harassed by a pair of Australian Ravens.
The harrier rose a metre or so and dropped back to the fence a couple of times
before flying off towards the turf fields. The ravens followed for 50m before
returning to the eau de Cologne compound.
