Hi all,

Whilst recording the dawn chorus on the banks of the Hacking River,
Royal National Park, NSW, I heard a call which I've never noticed
before. It was coming from high up in a tall eucalypt and sound somewhat
like a referee's whistle. The closest call I could think of is that of a
Fan-tailed Cuckoo (not the descending trill, but the peeuw-weeeuew call
as recorded here) . But this mystery call was consistently slower than
the FTC and repeated dozens of times in more or less the same way. If
anyone has an ID or suggestion I would be interested to know what you
think.

One birder has suggested it may be Brush Cuckoo - what do you think?
