Yesterday I walked out to my mail box and heard the distinctive
predator harassing calls of both Magpies & Aust Ravens. Looked up to see a
Wedge-tail Eagle flying right overhead. Just makes you think of how many
observations are missed.

Half way down Mt Stromlo about three weeks back, a
pair of WTEs just off side of road perched on dead timber. When they took off up
the mountain one had a rabit.
About two weeks ago coming back from Tumut accross
the mountains, WTE took off from side of road in the cleared forrest section and
almost ran into the car, flew with me for a while trying to gain
height. Then later in same trip in the euc forest section before
Brindabella, another WTE in low trees near side of road. It really struggled to
negotiate the trees when flying out. Also, one over Orroral Valley
today.
