Superb fairy wren as predator - Aranda

[Denis Wilson <>]

Beware the hunger of a Fairy-Wren.

They are indeed ferocious predators of things we seldom see or notice (tiny insects, mostly)
Taking on a Skink is a step up, but not really a change of character (as such).

About 8 wrens came onto our GBS site. There was a female/young wren that attacked one of the small skinks that inhabit our garden. The skink escaped a couple of times only to to be caught again. I saw the wren pecking into it and in the end it took it out of sight. None of the wrens around took any notice of this and I have never seen it happen before. I can't find any reference to this behaviour anywhere else. Has anyone else seen this?

Thanks
