A Convention of Cuckoos

["Tony Russell" <>]

I struck at least six Fan-tailed Cuckoos all doing the alternative call
around a clearing at Cann River ( Gippsland, Vic) in the rainforest at
the back of the caravan park. This would have been January in about 1995
or 96.  Probably moved on by now .

Hi Barry,

While at the top of Gunlom Falls (Kakadu) on the 10th of July last year,
I 
was quite sure I watched a small flock of four Black-eared Cuckoos fly 
overhead.   Not quite as unusual as ten?  The flight was swift and the
very 
black eye line was distinct.  They flew quite low across the cliff line.
