Just a quick note.
4 Ground Cuckoo-shrike have
taken up temporary residence
only 5 mins west of Bundaberg,Qld.
I have seen them reasonably closely in the same
paddock
most days in the last week.
These birds are uncommon hereabouts and offer
wonderful
viewing . As Eric Zillman , our legendary field
naturalist up
here said the other day whilst looking at them,
"Truly stunning
birds". Their black contrasting wings and long
tails are stunning.
What is also beautiful about them is their dominant
call when flying
...quite musical compared to other cuckoo-shrikes.
Cheers,
Bill
