Re: FW: [canberrabirds] A one question quiz

OK. So here is the answer. I was in the garden, enjoying the Crimson Rosellas, the King Parrots and the Crested Pigeons when they all shouted and left in a tearing hurry. I looked up and there was the Brown Goshawk glowering at me from under beetled brows.

So, how does a Brown Goshawk empty a garden?

A: It just does.

Noting Jack's forlon realization that we are entering yet another ACT winter of ornithological discontent, I thought I might pass along some learning I gained while sawing trees from under out wires in our garden this afternoon.

 

Question: How does a Brown Goshawk empty all the birds out of a suburban garden?
