Re: Birds 2013
That’s good to see DA, that the little tykes are ok. 
Greg
Ps it looks like the falcon was nesting in OZ, unless there are large eucalypts in other parts. Strange thing though, I thought those had 5 lugnuts on the wheels, I’m surprised at 4.

Re: Birds 2013
Could well have been in OZ Greg. Ford Falcons were sold there in the 60s. Blue gum Eucalyptus are in California not sure what kind Eucalyptus has the Flacon nesting?
Re: Birds 2013
It seems less likely to be California, the steering wheel is on the right.
