The powerful owl was still in Section 12 of the ANBG today.
I could see the tail only of a marsupial it had caught hanging down behind it. From
the size of the tail I guessed it was a possum. When I tried to go around
the back of the tree to get a better look at the prey 4 people who were in
there taking flash photographs of the owl told me that they were ANBG staff who
were allowed there, but I wasn’t.
There was a crew of workmen shredding branches in the area
where the bassian thrush and crescent honeyeater were seen.
Understandably, there was no sign of these birds.
I saw a rose robin in Section 193.
