Listen for their distinctive 'curra-wong' call. Look for large, dark birds with yellow eyes and white patches in their wings (visible in flight) and undertail. Often seen in groups.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Often more active and vocal in cooler months or during migration to higher elevations in summer. Vocal at dawn and dusk.
