Hi Jonty,

The same little #%@! (pied butcherbird I believe) drew blood on the RHS of my nose a week ago, and then came back for a second go but missed. Same spot just north of the pavilion adjacent to the netball courts.

If you Google an image you'll see that they have a wicked hooked beak - and that's probably what did the damage I suspect.

Rgds
