Storm Bird or Channel Billed Cuckoo is back!

A little fella like this was in our area and around our yard a few years back. I will have to check the blog to remember exactly how long ago that was. We now have another young bird who has two confused crow step parents running around him, as his egg was laid in their nest. He is bigger than them, and they are struggling to keep up with his demands!

Queensland Summer

But not this year. It has rained for around two months straight and now we are flooding.
