Saw by far the largest flock of Ravens that we've ever seen this morning
on Mt Mcdonald Rd a couple of hundred metres East of the intersection
with Brindabella Rd. Estimate 100-120 birds. Over a period of about 30
seconds they all came out of a stand of large eucalypts in the paddock,
wheeled around as a flock in circles of ~40-50m diameter for about
another 30 seconds, and then all retreated back to the trees. It was
rather like something out of Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds".
