White-breasted sea-eagle attacking chooks

["Andrew Noosa" <>]

Hi folks
Well, here in the humble hamlet of Cooran, Noosa Shire, SEQ, chook-owners 
have been in fear of a juvenile WBSE that has been showing a keen interest 
in the district's hens.  The bird actually had to be disentangled from the 
wire at one chook pen (and was released unharmed).  Next day, it turned up 
at my farm and was observed observing my free-ranging hens.  No doubt owing 
to my presence, it decided not to attack.
And you all thought they just ate fish!! :-)
Cheers
Andrew
