Understandable.  The 2 can be tricky, more so than the HBC/SBC issue.

 

Below snaps were from when they were both at Uriarra Xing earlier this year.  Note undertail barring.

After further feedback from others and the fact that Frank Antram and Benj

Whitworth found a juvenile Horsfield's Bronze Cuckoo at the same spot

yesterday I suspect the bird I saw was a juvenile Horsfield's

Bronze-Cuckoo.
