In the middle of a dark, moonless night, I heard a new bird call and was intrigued. Next day I heard it again, a set of three mournful trills with descending notes and oft repeated. So I followed my ears and found the source - a Fan-tailed Cuckoo. Aug/Sept is their breeding season - wonder if there's a shortage of partners for this one to be calling almost round the clock.
