Threskionis Molluca, more commonly known as a BIN CHICKEN, has an ever increasing presence in the urban environment and with its habit of scratching about in garbage, it has become an icon of Australia's pop culture, celebrated as a symbol of moxie and grit by some and can illicit passionate revulsion in others.

When Albert Edward Hawkshaw Garling retired, the local paper wrote a tribute to this amazing intuitive, listing the roles he took on across his time working in the country NSW town of Tooraweena which included storekeeper, post master, stock and station agent, agriculture machinery expert, photographer, income tax assessor, barber and ladies hairdresser, mechanic, undertaker, dentist, veterinarian and medicine man – setting fractures, stitching serious wounds, while building up a good reputation in diagnosis.
