Channel-bill Cuckoos

[Penny Brockman <>]

This afternoon, in endless drenching rain, two Channel-bill Cuckoos 
joined two male Koels in the gum trees backing my garden. What drew my 
attention to their very quiet entry was loud caws from a Little Raven 
that must have followed them in; then the Magpies flew in and attacked 
and the cuckoos flew off.
The visible Koel just sat there, unmolested, looking very wet and 
miserable. Yesterday two male Koels were sitting in full view in the 
mulberry tree and didn't move when I came out on the deck and 
photographed them.
