User's notes
These two Wedge-tails were flying the ridge lift in front of Shepherds Lookout when they passed a hovering kestrel which chased after them and went for the tail of one of the eagles. The kestrel was persistent and the eagles left the area shortly afterwards. For the record, there were another two Wedge-tails soaring above the Molonglo Sewerage Works off in the distance.
