No. 14 - Play with Google Docs
I created a new document titled "Wedge-tailed Eagle (see below), with regard to competition it poses to desktop office suites such as Microsoft Office I think for some purposes it would be a good alternative, but I don't think Microsoft need worry.
WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE
With a wingspan of up to 2.74m, the Wedge-Tailed Eagle is the largest raptor in Australia. A lanky bird, it hunts by high soaring flight, circling up on thermal air currants for hundreds of meters and sailing out over the countryside, covering wide areas on upswept wings, its tail fanned and dianmond-shaped.
Earlier this century, when eagles were found on dead sheep and lambs, it was thought that they had killed them. Bounties were paid for their destruction. In one year in Queensland 10,000 bounties were paid and between 1927-1968 in Western Australia another 15,000. The practice has ceased since it has been realised that the eagles usually attack only poor, dying or dead lambs and have little effect on the sheep industry. Today they are protected in all states.
