Just heard (8.25am) a Common Koel at the corner of Limestone Avenue and
Chisholm Street in Ainslie.
I was on my way to work, had the windows shut, radio on and above the
traffic noise could clearly hear the bird calling. It must have been very
loud or almost above me in a tree.

Just been watching (and being deafened by) a Common Koel perched 15 m up a
large Lime tree in garden on corner of Higgins Cresc and Drake Str
(Ainslie), calling at full blast. First heard it (half a km away) at c.
6.30 am. First hearing/sight in this part of Ainslie this year.
