Just outside Gunning
yesterday afternoon we saw a White-faced Heron perched on a
road-killed kangaroo and pecking away at the abdomen.
HANZAB states they will take
carrion but have never seen them doing so before. However,
I’ve watched them landing in a lambing paddock but didn’t
notice them take anything, probably because the omnipresent
ravens sent them packing pretty smartly.
