Healing raptors

I’m a bit surprised this hasn’t come up yet… New Aussie film ‘Healing’ is about prisoners in a low-security prison rehabilitating sick and injured raptors. It’s based on a true story – the partnership between Healesville Sanctuary and Won Wron Prison. Some pretty heavy acting talent was involved, including Don Hany and Hugo Weaving. I am sure I’m not the first birdy person to see it but am I the only one to make a movie bird list? There are plenty of birds, including the star Wedge-tailed Eagle. Three or four birds acted as ‘Yasmine’. Some birds are in rehab, others are shown flying in the wild. So what are they? How many different species did you see? (Do the bird calls in the bush count, too?) Some extreme close-up work highlights the beauty of the birds, and the bird point-of-view flying sequences are done well. It could have been very gooey and/or violent, but it’s not. _______________________________________________ Birding-Aus mailing list Birding-Aus@birding-aus.org To change settings or unsubscribe visit: http://birding-aus.org/mailman/listinfo/birding-aus_birding-aus.org
