Steve has just reminded me of a fishing trip to Lake Eildon in north eastern
Victoria. We were
sitting in our boat, fishing amongst some dead trees. My pop had just landed a
small redfin when
a kookaburra joined the four of us in the boat, grabbed the fish and took off.
No doubt he'd been
watching us from above and was a seasoned pirate!
