My local pair started refurbishing their nest a week ago. As well as suddenly getting very stroppy with the Pied Currawongs if they come too close.

I have just been observing a pair of Australian Ravens one of which was pulling apart a sheet of stringy bark. It was making a collection of thread-like pads which seemed clearly to be nesting material. They flew off to a distant tree
with a bill full of the material, hotly pursued by a Noisy Miner. The tree was too far for me to see if they were building a nest.
