Re David Torr's query about raptors in the suburbs:
In Perth, sparrowhawks and goshawks are not often seen, but they are more
commonly seen at this time of year, when dispersing young birds turn up,
especially around aviaries (eg at the zoo). Some of these birds are
probably also rather hungry, and an aviary would probably appear to a
goshawk or sparrowhawk a bit like a fast food outlet - except that they
find the doors are locked!
I would predict that there would be a similar seasonal pattern in other
southern Australian cities.
Has anyone else noticed such a pattern?
Cheers,
Allan
