There was a huge commotion in a tall tree in Hughes: 30 plus Currawongs, the same number of Noisy Miners, and a few Magpies swooping a bird perched at the top of the tree. I thought it might have been a raptor so I ran to get my binoculars and when I got
back I saw that they were swooping a Sulphur-crested Cockatoo with advanced beak-and-feather so that its head was dirty and dark and quite raptor-like in appearance. I guess the birds couldn't work out that it was a Cockatoo and thought that it was a raptor
too.
