This morning I watched two currawongs go through my heavily lerp-infested gum tree a la pardalote, cleaning up the leaves.  Those currawongs were actually bothering to gather and eat lerps.  I would have thought the masses of sparrows nearby would have been a better offering.  Maybe not all currawongs are avian predators.
