While doing my GBS count this morning my attention was drawn to an Australian Raven harassing a large raptor.  Close examination of the raptor revealed a distinctive forked tail and the general jizz of a Black Kite.  The raven eventually succeeded in driving the kite away to the south.  This was the first such sighting in my 13 years at Jerrabomberra.
