On the subject of unwell birds, you might remember Julian’s
updates on the cere of the Powerful Owl. Below left is Julian’s pic
of 17 June (which I’m sure Julian won’t mind my downloading).
On the right is mine of last Saturday, 4 August. An infection or a new
injury? (Restraint in diagnosing a cereous problem etc will be
appreciated.)

I
suspect the WFHE is sick. I base this assessment on 2 minutes viewing and
the case studies of the Powerful Owl and Little Wattlebird at the Bot
Gardens. There seems to be a strong correlation between unusual sightings
and unwell birds.
