Edwin's posting reminded me.... While visiting a friend at Woodford in the
central Blue Mountains on Tuesday (16 Sept), I was treated to my first
Channel-billed Cuckoos for the season as two flew by, completely dominating
the landscape for a few moments as Channel-bills always do. They were
welcomed after their long flight from the north by an angry magpie in hot
pursuit.

The second exciting moment for the week happened today while driving down
the Great Western Highway at Glenbrook, with a Pacific Baza flying across
the road in front of my vehicle. Although recorded fairly often in the
lower Blue Mountains, they are always great to see.

Cheers
