Channel-billed Cuckoos

[Phil Malin <>]

The "North side" CBC has been around for at least 9-10 days now. I have heard it call on 3 occasions. It is hard for me to pin-point a direction, due to the sound bouncing around my apartment complex courtyard, but I would guess that all three calls came from around Limestone Avenue on the edge of Braddon. It never hangs around for more than a minute or two.

Cheers

Phil

7.15 am one just  flew over Ainslie (Corroboree Park area), calling loudly,  heading in a rough northerly (NW) direction.

One Channel-billed Cuckoo has been reported to eBird in Lyneham at 8am yesterday and I have been told by email of one in the morning near Lark Hill in Bywong in the morning (heading in the direction of Carwoola).  It seems unlikely they are the same bird and hopefully a record will be submitted for the Bywong bird.
