Interesting discussions are being held with this young Coucal which flutters in and out of Little Darwin's backyard. It heartily responds below to our imitation Coucal calls -Woop!Woop!
We have repeatedly told an Ibis, which upsets our resident Curlews , to buzz off . It had the cheek to find a grub with its deep probing beak and then wash it in the Curlews' drinking and bathing water , which annoyed them .
Barking like a dog , clapping hands and brandishing a broom made a Currawong which was upsetting the Curlews with two young ones fly away, the water pistol filled and ready for action should it return .
