On the 9/7/02 I saw the powerful owl reported
previously at Banyule river flat wetlands. The bird was at presumably the
same perch, with whitewash and pellets underneath, sitting on what appeared to
be a ringtail possum. It was in a wattle tree on the banks of the Yarra,
in an area where there was a large number of black? wattles. A couple of
days later a family member went there but the bird was not there, however from
whitewash and pellets containing fur and bones this clearly is a regular
roost
