Antony Henderson, 56, was arrested from his Cremorne mansion about 7.30am on Monday after people in the area had begun finding injured birds around Green Street from April 2025 until September this year.

It was alleged that at least three birds were shot with arrows and ball bearings.

Each time, the birds were taken to Taronga Wildlife Hospital, where they were later euthanised due to the extent of their injuries.

During a search of Henderson’s home, police allegedly found and seized two slingshots and a number of metal ball bearings.

He was granted conditional bail to appear at Manly Local Court on November 26.
