I reckon that's a juv Brush Cuckoo, snail
Tegan - Melbourne Vic.
Yes i think its a juvenile Brush Cuckoo too because the brown extends all the way down, on Fan-tailed Cuckoos there is less brown before the tail.
Actually after doing more looking around at pictures, I think its a Juvi Fan-tailed because on Brush Cuckoos the brown looks alot more heavily barred than on your photo.
Wow this one is a bit tricky.
Here is a photo of a Brush Cuckoo I took a couple of weeks ago.
It is not as brown as yours, the tail is shorter and it looks like the eye ring on yours has a slight yellow tinge to it. I'm going with Fan-Tailed
