A few years ago I solo climbed Mt Domain (near Tidbinbilla). I
stretched out for a lunchtime nap near the summit. After a while I
heard a crash in the tree above me. Jumping up, I startled a
wedge-tail that had just landed there. He promptly flew off, slowly
gliding down to Tidbinbilla.
In
hindsight I wonder if he thought that I was carrion and that if I had
stayed still would he have floated down and taken a bite? That would
have been quite something although I doubt that I could have held my
nerve that long.
Could the experts advise if he really was getting ready for a homo sapiens sandwich?
