Yesterday's Sydney Morning Herald had a article on predation of a nest.  Two eggs were observed but a few days later only shells remained.

Following serious DNA detective work, it was established that the predator was a King Brown Snake.  This happened on the Bush Heritage site somewhere in QLD.

Someone who is tech savvy may be able to post the link.
