Have the Koels changed their calls yet? With females around once they
have mated the call changes to what I call the second phase call which
is same tonal value but slightly higher than the Oo oopp but rolls ooo
ooo ooo, if this makes sense.

Subject: Koel calling: Turner
For the last 45 minutes a Koel has been calling and being admired by
the local residents from the O'Connor end of Boldrewood Street. It
seems that the Turner pair must be a separate occurrence from the
Maquarie and Weetangera birds. My impression is that this is one of
the strongest influxes that I have witnessed, especially so because
of the presence of females.
