They are back

["Kim Farley via Canberrabirds " <>]

Haha. Yes, you are right, Mark. But your Evatt friends aren't the first to report them this spring. Shorty reported one on 19 August at Symonston, and Deb and Rod Ralph had one at Macarthur in late August. Shorty reported his on the Chatline and in eBird and Deb and Rod on eBird

On the other hand, your friends have definitely claimed the flag for the first report on the north side.

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”!!!!
