[R2U.announce] Agro Magpies 2 and RTW Day Breakfast Relocated

[Adam Taylor]

Hi again,

Because of the slightly dubious forecast for Wed we've decided to
relocate the breakfast to the lawn outside the ANUgreen demountable (see
attached) so that we can provide some shelter and keep our pancake
flipper dry, in case it's drizzling.

Pls forward the link to the online notice to your colleagues -

Follow the ongoing magpie deterrent research below.

Cheers,

Adam 




Last Friday we did some more 'tests' with the help of this Magpie (see
youtube Killer Magpie 2). It seems that this magpie goes for all shiny
helmets regardless the colours of helmets and or jackets. A wig fitted
on a
helmet stopped that magpie. Also we found another nasty magpie on Irvine
Street (Watson) who attacks all sorts of shiny helmets but stopped at
the
wig helmet.
