I prefer to think of it as the Giralang koel.
I heard it calling in with the dawn chorus and it is also the first I’ve
heard this year.

Koel
At the risk of
annoying/upsetting/infuriating the Koel-phobes I wish to report that the Kaleen
Koel was recorded for the first time this year by my wife calling close to our
house last night. At present, (0755) it is calling several hundred metres to
the west of our house close to the Giralang/Kaleen ridge.
