The Koels have left my place in Maroochydore.
The male departed on Monday, 6th March, after a weekend of celebration with the
female. She left on Sunday 19th March.
Today there are still plenty of Dollarbirds here,
and yesterday, with winds stirred up by "Wati", there were White-throated
Needletails by the hundreds, with quite a few Fork-tailed Swifts amongst
them. We don't normally see too many Fork-tails right on the
coast.
Haven't seen Cicadabirds regularly, so I'm not sure
of their status, and similarly with Channel-billed Cuckoos.
I'll look forward to their returns later in the
year.
