It was fascinating to see Aus Pelicans filling the role of dump chook at a landfill [presumably around Melbourne] on this week’s episode of the War on Waste.
The dominant dump chooks in SEQ are white ibis. In other places, Silver Gulls, the local corvids and Black Kites are the mainstays. In Weipa, Pied Herons filled the role.
How many other species of dump chook are there in Australia?
