I found a Pied Currawong in my garden trying
to carry off a protesting Crested Pigeon – probably the one I saw begging
for food from an adult yesterday. By the time I chased off the Currawong, the
pigeon wasn’t looking too good (blood on its neck, lyind on the ground)
but it struggled to a sitting position when I tried to pick it up. An hour
later it’s still lying there, head down but breathing. Is there any point
taking it to the RSPCA or somewhere? Otherwise I’d rather let it die in
peace. And I know… I probably shouldn’t have intervened… the
Currawong will just go and kill something else now…
