User's notes
Walking along the grass at the back of the Telstra Exchange in Deakin I spotted a Crested Pigeon and a lone Rock Dove apparently grazing on the same small part of grass. The Crested Pigeon flew off first as I approached, heading towards the trees while the Rock Dove flew to the wall of the Telstra Building, the surface in the background of the photograph.
