Hi All Today a gum tree on the Castiaeu end of Northmore Cr dropped a large branch. Dad and I investigated, and found a greeny-blue egg smashed on the footpath by the tree. There was also a very messy stick nest in the hollowed out groove of this branch. It seems this may have been a starling nest. One would like to think that the gum tree was unhappy with this pest species, and had chosen to drop a branch at the hollow as a form of revenge. Matt. |
