My first observation of breeding Koel at my home for the year (this season). Just now, arrived 5 minutes ago, a DY Koel with RW. That “weep” call and watched
just now. Is well grown, close to full length tail & wings.

Thank you Alison for this very interesting set of observations. A fledgling already feeding itself on plums is the most interesting to me, as it adds to the observations Diana White made in her
Narrabundah garden last season. There are now quite a few examples of 2 or more in close proximity or even together in the ACT.
That’s now 27 I’m aware of, but still none in my patch. Regards Jack Holland
