I have finally got my first raptor for my office list, it's only taken 18
months. But the big problem is I can't be sure of what it was. I was alerted
to its presence by the noisy miners who really didn't seem to quite know
what to do with a mixture of aerial warning calls and normal chatter, poor
darlings I'm sure they were more than a bit confused.
Anyway it was probably a Crested Hawk / Baza by the flight and longish tail.
It did some amazing aerobatics as the ravens mobbed it, they really didn't
seem very impressed. They had a better idea of what to do.
And all this in Ashfied, 8 km west of the Sydney CBD. Who said there were no
birds here....
Cheers
