User's notes

This Black-faced Cuckoo-shrike may have had a nest near by. I thought I noticed a nest in a tree, then when I moved to a different location this bird appeared to land at the nest but when it became aware I was still around it left the nest. I waited to see whether it would return to the next but it stayed perched on the branch. Rather than disturb the bird any more I left the area.
