I think they tend to arrive earlier here than over east. I don't have many
actual records but I'd have thought the first ones get back late July. The
first I heard this year was at Christmas Tree Well on the BAWA walk there on
5th August and there were two or three calling along Yarra Road on Wednesday
this week when I went down there for a quick look.

When is Shining Bronze Cuckoo usually due in the south-west? I've had one
calling in my backyard for at least 3 weeks now. I have a feeling the
local rufous whistler will have an impostor in his nest.
