I'd say NF numbers are down at the Pinnacle compared with previous years. The same goes for Leaden Flycatchers.

The Noisy Friarbird seems to be absent from my local area of NW Chapman/Cooleman Ridge and the S side of the Narrabundah Hill reserve, in fact I seem to have only one record for December so far. Is this what other chat line subscribers are experiencing, or is this just a local phenomenon?

(They raised 3 chicks here in January this year.) This morning I finally found the nest, about 5m up in a large Yellow box tree. I am hopeful that I will be able to see chicks eventually. It is unlikely the nest will be parasitised by Koels as we get get very few of them out here but I have this week recorded 5 cuckoo species in my GBS site (Horsfields and Shining bronze; Pallid, Fan-tailed and Brush.
