Quoth the raven nevermore...

Well it seems the good folk of the Western suburbs have decided to take a stand on an issue that really matters for once. Not the drought, not the housing affordability crisis not even the parking problems in Claremont caused by selfish b*****ds in 4wds. No, the real problem is the Australian Raven. Due to the fact that the gentlefolk of Mosman Park have for the last few years destroyed much of the native trees in the area, the Ravens have lost nesting space and as a result, they are coming into people's gardens and making a noise- God forbid. So, Mosman Park council is about to engage in a cull. This is despite the fact that replanting some of the native trees would be a much more humane and environmentally friendly act than killing off a native species. Its good to know that they have their priorities right. I think the process should be extended. Given the nuisance caused by Dalkeith tractors in the area perhaps an immediate cull for anyone not using one for a legitimate purpose might be in order?
