Saw a Pacific Baza today cruising at about 50m above tree tops and from that height and about 100m away it spotted a favourite meal- the green phasmid. It folded its wings in a graceful imitation of a Peregrine, swooped in and plucked its prey from the foliage. Then consumed it amid the raucous attention of Noisy Miners and Magpies.
