Immature fledged Pacific Koel being fed by host parents - a pair of Noisy Friarbirds (NF). Second image shows the NF adult feeding the young Koel in response to its repetitive begging call. The 3rd image shows a silhouette of the adult NF.

Interesting- first record of Noisy Friarbird as a host I think.

Yes, I posted this observation pimarily for that reason. I have noted several such observations in recent weeks on the COG Chatline, but with other host species.
