I have just got back inside after watching this
Channel-billed Cuckoo from our backyard (in sunny western Sydney) trying to
parasitise? a nest. As usual, the Pied Currawongs, Magpies and Noisy Miners are
giving it a hard time. However, this individual (maybe the same one I watched
frequently last season in the park opposite our place) sneaks in without being
so noisy like the others do. I normally see them in groups of threes or fours
and at times 6.
We still haven't yet seen our usual Koels as they
sometimes arrive as late as mid. Oct.
