Channel-billed Cuckoo

Heard the first call of a Channel-billed Cuckoo for the season this morning. We live off Bunya Road, Draper, Samford Valley, about 25km North-west of Brisbane.

    It is amazing how loud they are – I saw a group of four flying over Marrickville Road in Dulwich Hill shops a few days ago. The ravens really seem to mob and chase them – I sometimes wonder whether these are male channelbills making so much noise to be a decoy (maybe) while the females find nests to lay in… Cas —–Original Message—– [mailto:birding-aus-bounces@lists.vicnet.net.au] On Behalf Of Jude Latt Sent: Sunday, 17 November 2013 6:05 PM That’s a super recording Graeme.
