G'day. I am new here. For the last three or four weeks I have heard
a bird calling in Charnwood starting at 2am, usually finishes about
7am. A sort of soft cooee, repeated about 6 or 7 times and then a
spell. Also heard the same call last week at 7am on my bike ride at
the intersection of Belconnen Way and Benjamin Way. Any ideas?
I'd guess you're hearing a Koel. If you go to
http://garden.canberrabirds.org.au/contents/birdGroups/cuckoos.htm and
click on the picture of the Koel you can hear its call.
