Koels and Pied Currawongs

["alan morris" <>]

Hi Everyone,
I am interested in the comments from Carol Abbott concerning the Pied 
Currawong rearing a juvenile Koel Cuckoo. There is no doubt that the bird is 
a juvenile Koel.
As it is extremely unusual for Pied Currawongs to be the host for a Koel 
Cuckoo ( I know of no previous records at least in NSW), I wonder if a 
mistake has been made and  that the Pied Currawong is just as casual 
observer. Has the Currawong actually been seen feeding the Koel? The usual 
host for Koels in Sydney is Red & Little Wattlebirds and occasionally Noisy 
Friarbirds.
