02.01.2022 This shy bird photographed in Alexandra Hills, a haunting call day and night. You can often spot males perched in high positions calling and displaying. Common koels prefer leafy, fruiting trees on the fringes of woodlands, rainforests, streams and are commonly found in suburban backyards. They are migratory birds that travel to Australia to breed, arriving in south-east Queensland in spring and staying until March-April when they head back to Indonesia.
