Took this accidentally when looking for black kites at the hillside
Since this bird is so far away, I've done my best with the digital camera
Laguna City
Lam Tin
Canon PowerShot SX210 IS
Could well be a Koel, the posture sure looks like one. Author: S02665 Time: 26/03/2012 21:48
Really? if so, it would be the first koel I've ever seen with my own eyes(or camera!)
Thanks a lot! Author: Justin Time: 28/03/2012 23:11
Did you hear its call? Its sound can be quite loud and is easy to recognize. May be you can have some web searching on its call and you can confirm it when you hear it next time. =) Author: K_Chan Time: 14/04/2012 06:06
There was a small hill previously occupied by Drainage Dept behind Phase III. Loud koel sound - plus other birds - are heard on and off.
Where did you take this photo / look for black kites?
