User's notes

A young bird as it was constantly calling but no sight of an adult feeding. Initially thought a Koel fledgling till I looked at the photos on the computer. Very dull and smokey so photos not good. Flew away from the wattle bird each time it flew near. Would appreciate ID. Tried COG chatline but my email has been blacklisted.
