Dean & David and others interested,
We have a small population of ravens in Bulleen (a Melbourne suburb quite close
to Box Hill). Most are Little Ravens and they do breed in the area but we
also get some Ausrtralian Ravens as well. I'm not sure whether or not they are
breeding here or not.
Regards,
Fiona
