John Bundock has promised to post a photo showing our powerful owl clutching an 
unmistakeable sulphur crested cockatoo. Whilst looking for the owl  mid-morning 
yesterday I noticed one solitary SCC perched high in the second oak tree very 
close to a customary site of the PO. Usually the cockatoos very common in this 
area give the owl trees a very wide berth. My theory is that Turnerl ( the owl 
) spotted the SCC in the daylight hours and quickly established territorial 
rights and a good feed. The sighting yesterday was in the far left of the first 
oak tree with good photos obtainable some 30 metres or so into Haig Park.your 
powl reporter....... Terry B.
