I observed a Fan-tailed Cuckoo on Saturday morning in degraded bushland just beyond the south-eastern edge of Queanbeyan and initially thought it noteworthy, but on returning home and checking Steve Wilson's informative tome* 'Birds of the ACT - Two Centuries of Change', found that some individuals stay over winter in this area so I didn't trouble this chatline by reporting it.
 
Incidentally, are Stubble Quail worth reporting?
 
Regards,
Leo.
