What bird is this? (audio recording) in Brisbane

Hi, could anyone tell me what bird this is? It sounds very similar to the sound recording below. I live in North Brisbane if it helps, and the bird does its call every now and then in the day and in the night.

It is a clear, short whistling sound: http://beyond-ninja.com/downloads/IMGP2525.WAV

Thanks in advance :)

That sounds very much like a Common Koel. They are around Brisbane at the moment, and call during the day and night.

Yes Andy, it had to be a bird we don't get down here in Vic, I have never heard the sound before.
