I was out in Namadgi NP yesterday and saw good numbers of birds of prey.
2 male Swamp Harriers, 4 Nankeen Kestrels, 2 Brown Falcons, actually saw
a Brown Goshawk swoop down and grab a small rabbit before carrying it
off and 2 other Brown Goshawks also seen in vicinity. One of them
performing spectacular diving routines after soaring very high.
But highlight was running into a mob of Kanagaroos that were going
beserk and i wondered what the fuss was all about - then i saw pack of 7
wild dogs/Dingos chasing them - felt i was back in Kruger National Park
watching wild dogs hunt impala ! i managed to keep my distance from them
i might add !
