I got this bird at Brisbane, QLD this afternoon. It does look like some sort of Bronze-Cuckoo with white eyes ?

yes, I am thinking Horsfield's Bronze-Cuckoo but I do not have a lot of experience in identifiying cuckoos - bronze or otherwise

I've probably got even less experience with bronze-cuckoos, but would lean towards Shining. Consulting my field guide adds little bronze-cuckoo to the list of likelys

I think it looks best for Shining Bronze Cuckoo but its hard to rule out Little Bronze from these shots. Too green for Horsfields I reckon.

Hi All,
On the same morning I took a clearer shot of this bird with better details for a Shining Bronze-Cuckoo. Not sure it is the same bird ?
