Frank I wrote a short note for Australian Birds about congregating Whistling Kites at an egret breeding colony near Grafton. I don't have the details on me. Possibly published 1993? These birds were apparently cleaning up dead nestlings on the floor of the colony, a substantial part of which was in Acacia melanoxylon trees on dry land. I observed no birds attempting to take live nestlings although Sea-eagles and Wedge-tailed Eagles did. David Geering |
