Yesterday my wife was disturbed by a lot of noise from the budgies in
our aviary in suburban Bayswater (30km from Melbourne but definitely
not the edge of the built up area).
Upon investugating she saw an immature Brown Goshawk (possibly imm
Collared Sparrowhawk - did not get a good enough look) perched on the
roof of the aviary - no doubt looking for an easy meal (there is a
chicken in the aviary as well - and free range ones in the garden that
the hawk ignored!
Is it unusual to see them n the suburbs?
