CUCKOO-SHRIKES AND ORIOLE |
|
Family CampephagidaeCuckoo-shrikes and Trillers (Family Campephagidae) are medium sized arboreal birds of quite striking appearance that inhabit the upper branches of eucalypt woodland and forest. Cuckoo-shrikes are elegant birds, generally of grey, black and white, which characteristically refold their wings a number of times on landing in a tree. The Black-faced Cuckoo-shrike is a regular visitor to Canberra, while the White-bellied Cuckoo-shrike (14 records) and the Cicadabird (2) much less so. Family OriolidaeThe Olive-backed Oriole is the only member of Family Oriolidae to visit Canberra, and is included in this group for convenience.
