Pied Currawong - Strepera graculina. Male 42-50 cm
Pied Currawongs are found throughout eastern Australia, from northern Queensland to Victoria, but is absent from Tasmania.
The Pied Currawong prefers forests and woodlands, and has become well adapted to suburban areas.
Pied Currawongs feed on a variety of foods including small lizards, insects, caterpillars and berries. They also take a large number of small and young birds, especially around urban areas where suitable cover is scarce.
