An Eastern Koel is a type of cuckoo. This particular female was targeting the nest of Red Wattlebirds which are very tiny in size to the Koel.

This Photo was taken on a cold misty morning in the Blue Mountains Australia.

Max was one of the birds that used to visit us in the Blue Mountains Australia.
