Re: Salutations...

I have no idea, when I was told the story I was just told owl...my grandma thought it was funny and stood there laughing, (although she did the same thing when a blue racer snake was chasing my mother and her other sister...and they're poisonous) finally it dropped her though...so I can't blame my mom for hating them.

Re: Salutations...

Number 5, the Australian Magpie, nice little warbbling sound but would probably be more appropriate if you heard:

"Target in Site...3..2..1.. Dive! Dive! Dive!"




They've a habbit of swooping people who enter their territory during breeding season.

Re: Salutations...

Oh we used to have to paint out bike helmets with eyes at the back to stop them swooping

Already? He's almost fully grown, if they were human they'd probbaly be 4ft nothing, with a leather jacket, slick back hair and going around saying "are you looking at me" .
