Where are the Koels this year? Also Rainbow Bee-eaters?

[Robert Parnell via Canberrabirds <>]

Hi Jack

I have heard a koel calling around Favenc Circle in the last three days. Just a few calls. Nothing in the dawn chorus this morning.

Hello subscribers, hard to believe but only 2 records of the Eastern Koel on eBird in the COG Area of Interest (AoI) so far this spring, both in September, when for the past few years there have been quite a few before the end of that month.   Has anyone made any other observations?

 

Also no records on eBird so far this spring of the Rainbow Bee-eater in the COG AoI, though otherwise I do have one for September which is again the month the first arrivals have been recorded in the past few years.  Again has anyone made any other observations?

 

Many thanks
