g'day all,
Just before dawn (5.30am) I thought I heard a
Channel-billed Cuckoo.
A little later, at the Golf-course I saw a single
C-b C being vigorously chased by several Magpies the full
length of a fairway.
In March last year, at the Golf Course, it took
about 6 Magpies going flat out to feed & bring up 2 young Cuckoos.
Could it be they were some of the same
Magpies & they did not want to go
through that experience again ?
Regards, Bob Forsyth, Mount Isa, NW
Queensland.
ps We are due north of Adelaide and are about an hour behind
Brisbane's sunrise.
