There has been an interesting discussion on birding-aus today about whether Powls eat carrion.  The conclusion is that they don't.  (Our specimen wasn't feeding on anything this morning but sitting up in its usual tree looking Powerful.)

I then read Rosemary's question about whether the 'burbs are inundated with Ravens.  The reason Acton is inundated with Ravens is because they are feeding on dead carp.
