Thanks Gary, Sydney too eh .. well they get around dont they. Strange though I guess they are now just as comfortable in habitats close to man as they are in much less populated PNG.
Birds are funny things though. IVe been lucky enough to be able to feed them in different spots Ive lived. They are vary wary unless they are hungry .. then they break all the rules. When normally one would take to the wing if you get to 5 paces from it if its hungry it could actually land on your arm for first dibs at the meat.
Anyway, not going to hijack the thread.
