FW: May be of interest

[Philip Veerman <>]

The trailers on ABC TV for this series show a Black Kite picking up a burning stick, presumably to carry it and spread the fire. So I am interested to see that. This is something stated to have long been claimed by aboriginal people and long been not believed or considered with scepticism. Australian Birdlife 7(1):32-35 March 2018, discussed this but I don’t know of any film evidence of this before.

Yes Kym, of course I remember Charles.  A creative photographer.  Several on this list will know him.   Some great footage in that series.  However Barry Humphries’ hypnotic voice deserves a better script.     g

For the last couple of years I’ve been branching out into natural history films, the first of which starts this Sunday 7.40pm on ABC. My little part that I spent the most time on is in episode 3. Big shout out to @benjamin_cunningham_dop who unlike me actually knows how to use a cine camera.

Thanks Kym.  Yes, this was on the morning ABC tv.  I am struck by the line ‘the Indian miner has reacted with anger …’ .   Gives a whole new meaning to ‘Myna Rage’.  Below a little experiment with Microsoft Publisher
