User's notes

Boobook was being harassed by several noisy miners (which drew my attention to it's presence) which may have been concerned about themselves or their offspring becoming diet items after dark, which was approaching quickly. Sorry about the poor quality pics, it was coming on dusk and all I had was a compact camera.
