Thanks to Richard for his tales:

re #1 Boobooks are rare here in Bayside in spring but one
(with very pale spectacles) was by George St Sandringham on
3/11 (on a branch of a quite open tree). So I guess they
were, for some, reason on the move around Port Phillip
recently.

re #2 "Do Tiger Snakes normally eat birds? Answer: YES" 
Well, and no. There is a lovely picture of a Tiger Snake
with a Short-tailed Shearwater chick in "The handbook of
Australian Sea-birds" saying "they often co-habit and
tolerate each other."
