User's notes

Tawny frogmouth wing and assorted feathers on ground. A predator of large birds is active in this area - nearby I found a magpie wing a week ago, a dead cockatoo with throat ripped out on weekend (Michael Mulvaney said maybe by a goshawk), a large quantity of rock pigeon feathers in one spot last week and a cockatoo wing and feathers a couple of weeks ago.
