A glare or stare makes all the difference in the realm of raptors. Glares are the domain of goshawks, stares are left for sparrows, sparrowhawks that is. Impending darkness obscures the form and casts confusion. The pied currawong does not engage in such esoteric debates. Nor does the raptor. There will be no escape for the hawk with no name as the currawong launches its attack. Such interlopers will not be tolerated.
It looks like a glare to me. What do you think?
Kind Regards.
Tracy.

I suspect it might be actually be a hard stare. It was exciting action nevertheless.

The currawong won, Jane. Hawks have such hard lives.

My immediate thought was, if looks could kill, that currawong would be dead.

The currawong has that effect on other birds.
