I have been hearing CBCs almost everyday this month in Leichhardt, Camperdown and Newtown. Same thing last year when I visited the area for a week in mid-December.

There was a Channel-billed Cuckoo in Sydney's Botanic Gardens yesterday.
They are all over the place, quite an irruption.

They're also in relatively large numbers in the Hunters Hill and Ryde areas
at the moment (10-12 km NW of the Sydney CBD).

Same around Toronto and it has me wondering about the impact of this on
their hosts. For example each year the Currawong pair in our locality raises
one or two CBC's and this must be at the expense of Currawong chicks- I
haven't seen a young Currawong being fed for several years now.

There have been 4 causing constant chaos in Paddington this year driving the large colony of Currawong's crazy (in Stephen Street Park).

Being contantly chased by local Noisy Minors, Currawongs and chasing and attacking each other.

On another note, there is a Currawong nest (with chick) in the Plane tree outside Macquarie Bank in Bond Street.
