starlight7 4,197 Posted November 11, 2014 Yesterday I was calling pussy cat for his dinner and the resident currawong arrived instead- so I gave him some fruit bread. Same thing again today- clever bird must know the call. He is like the magpies and eyeballs you through the window when he is hungry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
