Hello all,
I saw my first Mistletoe bird today at Ingleburn. I
have wanted to see this bird since I was child in the early sixties when I
saw a picture of it on the Weet-Bix breakfast cereal cards.
Is this bird usually difficult to
find.
I also saw a bronze Cuckoo but not sure if it was a
Rufous-tailed or an immature Golden Bronze Cuckoo, it was rather dull in colour
but I did not see it in full sunlight. it had incomplete brown bars across the
belly. I noticed it had faint bars across the tail. My field guide does not
mention either of these birds having bars on the tail.
Any ideas as to the identity of this
bird.
Anthony
