Pallid Cuckoo doing what?

Not sure if this is the right forum within BiB for this post but it is an unusual one. Have taken a series of photos of a pallid cuckoo, but as far as ornithology goes, I'm not sure what this is although I can have a good guess. I have put up three photos. For a closer look at the full size photo, it is on my blog at http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0CDKWUydP9I/TbezI0E5HuI/AAAAAAAAASs/nWjBMnYr4dE/s1600/pallid+cuckoo+large.JPG
Here are the smaller versions:

Looks like you caught him during a "comfort" stop mate :)

It does look like he is doing his business but I really don't know for sure what it's doing.

Cheers, Owen.
