Can you (and anyone else who has Koels or other cuckoo breeding records in a GBS site) record the event carefully with notes on the Chart.  If a juvenile Koel emerges it should be recorded as DY for that species.

I've been watching a Wattlebirds nest that I believe has been parasitised by a Koel. A young dead Wattlebird chick is hanging outside the nest & the chick being fed by the adult Wattlebirds isn't making the normal bzzzt bzzt calls of a young wattlebird. I can't see inside the nest because it is too high. Over the past month there was a lot of Koel activity in the area. I am keeping a close eye on what happens.
