WT Eagle,

Lovely story John.  Amusing to wonder if those adaptable maremma sheepdogs could adapt to this task (eg http://www.cosmosmagazine.com/blog/sheepdogs-guard-penguins/).

Hi all eagle watchers.

For the second year in a row I have seen a Wedge Tailed Eagle take one of my neighbour's chooks.

My Portuguese neighbour has a very traditional approach to his garden and hens and he takes them for a walk to forage at the back of our houses backing on to Ginninderra Creek. I usually choose that time of day to have a yarn with him and yesterday a WTE swooped down and took a hen. Same thing happened September last year.

The Eagle returns sometimes and roosts on top of the chook house or his Verandah. he still walks the chooks but he carries a big stick and keeps the little flick close to him.

Cheers

John
