I live on the edge of the village of Robertson, surrounded by mostly cleared farmland, with Rainforest remnants around.
Boobooks are not uncommon. I hear the occasional call, and would not normally comment upon it.

However, last night, in light misting rain, at 10:30 PM a Boobook was calling actively. That was unusual.

I wondered if this is possible breeding season activity?. It seemed early in the season, (to my ears).

Are you amongst Greg Hunt's "increasingly hysterical environmental activists"?
If not, why not?
The Great Barrier Reef decision of 31 January 2014 is a travesty.
