a bird?

[Chris Corben <>]

Hi Frank

Just a niggle - although Greater Gliders look big, they are all fluff! I 
would think if you are talking about adult possums, taking a Brushtail 
would be a much more difficult and dangerous task for a Powerful Owl 
than taking a Greater Glider or Ringtail.
Cheers, Chris.
