BAYBOCA (the Bayside Branch of the Bird Observers Club of Australia) had an 
outing last Saturday (26 August) to a member's property at Nagambie, next to 
the Graytown State Forest and Mount Black Flora and Fauna Reserve.  In the 
total of 57 species for the day, we recorded five species of cuckoo: Pallid, 
Fan-tailed, Shining Bronze, Horsfield's Bronze and Black-eared, all on the 
property.  In addition, we recorded Swift Parrot, Hooded Robin, Southern 
Whiteface, White-browed Babbler, Crested Bellbird and a single male Turquoise 
Parrot.  A minor highlight was the absence of any feral birds.
