Continuing on the discussion of Koels, there was one calling in east
Kambah on Sunday night - I woke a number of times throughout the night
and early morning and always heard him. From memory, I have heard Koels
calling, on and off, since a few weeks before the blitz weekend. Then
yesterday when I was riding home from work I heard shrill alarm calls
from a backyard and then witnessed both male and female Koels being
chased across Summerland Circuit by Magpie-larks. This is actually the
first time I've seen this species, so it was nice to see both genders -
and I love the long tails!
Kind regards
Matthew Frawley
