Horsfield's Bronze-Cuckoo Chrysococcyx basalis |
|
Horsfield's Bronze-Cuckoos prefer fairly open woodlands. They are most easily seen in October, when numbers are at their highest, but there are no records from April to July. Noisy, begging juveniles have been observed being fed by Superb Fairy-wrens and White-plumed Honeyeaters. These cuckoos were most abundant in the first two years of the survey. There are three breeding records of dependent young in late January in 1985 and 1986. Because the young of Horsfield's Bronze-Cuckoo are difficult to distinguish from those of Shining Bronze-Cuckoos, there is some doubt about the accuracy of these particular sightings. R=69.
