Hello all.

I am very curious about Australian Ravens (Corvus coronoides) in Melbourne. 
Apparently, they are not a very common bird either in the city or the suburbs, 
but have been spotted from time to time. What I have certainly never heard of 
is an Australian Raven nesting or taking permanent residence here. This is what 
I would to find out.

Is there anybody here with experience in corvid identification (including, for 
example, an awareness of any misconceptions) who can state with confidence that 
they have seen an Australian Raven not just perching or what not but actually 
nesting or at least maintaining permanent residence somewhere in Melbourne?

Thank you in advance.
