A fledgling cuckoo, possibly a Shining Bronze Cuckoo, was making quite a bit of noise as I walked by at Coolart wetlands. After waiting a short while a Brown Thornbill appeared and began to feed the cuckoo. It must have fed about 10 insects to the cuckoo in a short time, I'll bet the thornbill will be glad to see the cuckoo complete it's independence.
Oh!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful and rare post!
Fantastic!
We've got the same thing in France with Cuckoos but I never witnessed such a scene!
I am... hummmm... just a tiny bit jalous!! LOL!
And THE must: great shots too!
Cheers Wampy!
