White-bellied Cuckoo-shrike

(Coracina papuensis)

Sightings

A White-bellied Cuckoo-shrike came to our former place, 20 km south of Narrabri, New South Wales, on an extremely hot day in January 2006.

The next spotting was in March 2007, 30 km north of Coonabarabran. Later spotted also 30 km east of Narrabri, in January 2008.

Seen by us also on a trip to outback NSW and South Australia in March 2008, basically everywhere we went.
