Koels etc.

aka DDDs (Departure Date Determinations). When migrants return, we delight in claiming the "First for the season". So why is it that we don't place equal emphasis on claiming the "Last for the season"? Well we all know why. It's too darn hard. Unless we religiously keep a diary of our sightings and then compare notes in the off-season to determine whose was the last sighting, how would we do it? Well now I think I know: provide another avenue for some one-up-manship on a public forum! If you've bettered the last date, please set the record straight ...

Post by Olive Booth »

The last Koel I heard here at Rockville was on the 9th. March. Also was heard at Gatton the same day, not heard since either place.
My brother in Helidon says he hasn't heard any for awhile but he did see 2 Channel Bills fly over about a week ago.
