The Mawson Koel is making his presence felt. Been calling for about 8 days now but hasn’t reached my GBS area yet.

Many thanks Mark, yours is now the 10th suburb from which I am aware they have been reported this season so far. After hearing one in the very distance yesterday morning, I was able
to confirm one calling briefly but clearly in Rivett this morning. Regards Jack Holland

Afternoon all,
I have just been told that some of my birding colleagues had a Pacific Koel calling very close to their Evatt house this morning. Won’ t be long now before all the complaints start about “that bloody noisy bird”!!!!
