The subspecies there is subspecies magnirostris - apparently has longer and heavier bill and shorter tail. little studied. Did you get any photos?

Has anyone looked at the systematics of the Pied Currawong on the cape? I spent time watching them last week and their flight seemed (at least to me) more laborious than those farther south. Is this my imagination or have others noticed differences?
