We frequently get them around the pond in our garden in Bulleen, near
Doncaster Victoria. They can be rather aggressive to the smaller birds.

Subject: [Birding-Aus] Grey Currawongs in Melbourne - and fires?
Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2007 17:31:32 +1000
Last time I visited Melbourne (end of January 2007), I stayed with my
brother on Warrigal Road, Surrey Hills. We were in the backyard when I
observed a Grey Currawong fly in and pluck a mini tomato of the bush and
fly off with it. Rather odd I thought.
As for this type of discussion about abundance and distribution of these
birds and Song Thrushes and whatever else, I know I have said it before but
wouldn't it be great if Melbourne had a Garden Bird Survey going, like we
have had in Canberra since 1981, so that discussions like this were based
on some consistent data.
