Koels have been very active around my place in Fraser since they arrived back this year but so far I have not recorded any juveniles nearby (closest I know of is near Spence shops). Today an immature male appeared in my yard. This is the first time I have seen a bird in this plumage in Canberra. It is possible it is not a bird which has been raised locally. A frame from my video is attached.
