Greetings Folks
Like Susan our Channel-billed Cuckoos, along with the Sacred Kingfishes,
have arrived and been present for the past few days. The first of the
Oriental Dollarbirds arrived yesterday at Allen Road [2 birds toady]. We
still await the arrival of the koels.
First
Those interested may care to browse my neonatal website:

Or, for a quicker browse turn to my Twitter account, @osprey00
Cheers
Julian

Here in Eastwood we have seen (or heard) plenty Channel-billed Cuckoos. The
Koels have also arrived.

McRae Place in North Turramurra this morning. Some good spring birds
included in the 45 species seen or heard, including a Black-faced Monarch,
nesting Leaden Flycatchers, at least 6 singing male Golden Whistlers, 2
Dollarbirds and a pair (seen) and 3 or 4 others (heard only) of Sacred
Kingfishers. However, missing for me were Channel-billed Cuckoos. I may
have heard one call in the distance just as I walked into McRae Place (off
the junction of Burns Rd & Bobbin Head Rd) at about 7am but that was it.

this spring. There are Currawongs and Ravens about, so the requisite target
species are in the neighbourhood. Is anybody else seeing numbers down?
