The car-parks in Irving Street, Philip used to have wide shrubberies around and through the middle of them with lots of mulch; these were happy hunting grounds for the Philip Street Choughs. (I'm not sure if these Choughs were the ones sometimes seen around Philip College further to the east, but in the last couple of years they nested in the grounds of the swimming pool in Irvine Street). Anyway, the car-park has recently been renovated to make it pay-parking and all the shrubberies have been removed. This morning at around 7am I saw a group of Choughs in the middle of this concrete desert attacking a McDonalds bag! -- John Leonard Canberra Australia www.jleonard.net ******************************************************************************************************* This is the email announcement and discussion list of the Canberra Ornithologists Group.
