Hello David,
It is a Shining Bronze Cuckoo . Chrysococcyx lucidus . check out the other
recordings on: https://www.xeno-canto.org/species/Chrysococcyx-lucidus
If I am wrong, then it is a Horsfield's B-C but I think not.
If I am still wrong, then it is a great mimicry of the above, by an Oriole,
Bowerbird, etc but very unlikely if "Repeated several times over a 15 minute
period" (typical for a cuckoo, especially if you can't find it) .
Philip

I heard this call this morning around 9am, western end of Deakin. Repeated
several times over a 15 minute period. Any suggestions as to what it might
be? I had not noticed it before. See (or hear)
