My wife heard a koel near our house in Scullin on the weekend while I was away. We’re only 250m from Paul’s place.

I tend to think it is also the bird that Barbara (in Page) has mentioned and others have reported in Hawker and Weetangera. Or ss that too large a range?

P.S. And who's schlossed? I don't drink any more than the next bloke!

Google Earth suggests that it is  about 1.7km in a straight line beween Chateau Fennell and Schloss Brannan.  If the bird was somewhere close to halfway between it would possibly be in a tree directly over Anthony Overs' roof. 

 

This would all be happening within the range of "carryingness" estimated by Geoffrey's tracking in darkest Narrabundah.

Heard one in Florey for the first time this year at 4.30 this morning. Presumably the same one that Paul complains of in Scullin.
