The attached photos of a Bronze-Cuckoo were taken today at Mulligans Flat.  At the time I identified it as an immature Shining but having had a closer look and checked Bird in the Hand I am not sure.  Can anyone with more experience with Bronze-Cuckoos offer an opinion.
 
Photo Bonze-Cuckoo 1 shows the bird from the rear, Photo Bronze-Cuckoo 2 shows the under side of the tail.  The third photo shows the bird from underneath but it could be a different bird as it was taken separately.
 
Apologies for the quality of the photos, they are taken off video footage in which the bird was fairly small.
