Hello Jack
I too feel that there has been a reduction in the numbers of
Channel-billed Cuckoos in my area around St.Ives this season .The
numbers of Pied Currawongs also have been noticeably fewer the past two
years. Gone are the large congregations that were common in the past .
My largest count for one flock about 5 years ago , was 142 gathered for
a" Currawong Chorus" in the trees about my house
I am still hearing CB's , Koels and Dollar Birds, but with the
exception of the Dollar Bird , they are not as enthusiastic as they
were earlier in the season.

Yesterday morning I heard a Channel-billed Cuckoo calling, as it was
flying across Willoughby Bay in North Cremorne.
This summer there have been fewer sighting of these birds , although
there were several Koels around.
