| Comment | I was fortunate to find two adult Channel-billed Cuckoos perched in the open after they had feasted on fruit from an adjacent Moreton Bay fig tree. This photo was selected as it includes both a male and female bird. The larger bill size of the male bird is clearly shown in the photograph. | ||||||||||||||||||
