Do channel-billed cuckoos overwinter in the Northern Territory?
On July 9, a large long grey bird flew out in front of me on an early
morning walk near the Kakadu Aurora Hotel just west of the South Alligator
River. Given the size & colour, I can't imagine what else it could have
been. Even in the split second, I thought I would have seen the bill easily
but did not.
Are they ever seen in winter in the Top End? (last week being my first
visit).
regards
Alastair
