User's notes

I glanced out the window this morning and saw, what I thought was a cockatoo or corella on the garden waste bin. I took a photo through the window and got a poorly focused shot of this grey goshawk (white morph). Unfortunately, it got spooked by something and flew away before I could get outside to get a better shot. I checked out what remained near the bin and found the carcass of a bronzewing. We found the kill site in another, more exposed, area of the garden, so it must have carried the body over to the bin after killing the bronzewing.
