A local currawong has just taken a large goldfish
from our fishpond - I was less than two metres away, the other side of glass.
The currawong spent a moment on a stepping stone, checking out the fish in the
shallow section against the house, before efficiently taking the pale adult
fish. I have now actually seen fish taken from our pond by a magpie lark,
kookaburra and now currawong. But the fish keep breeding at a good rate . . .
but I am sorry to lose the one taken today because it was a great leaper into
the air.
Oh well . . nature raw in beak and claw . .
.
cheers
Barbara
