Cuckoo

Hi Everyone,

I have seen this Cuckoo.

Is it a juvenile Shining Bronze Cuckoo or something else?

Thanks,

Curtis

With that obvious dark patch behind/below the eye, I'd say not Shining. Appears to have white tail tip, indicative of Black-eared Cuckoo. That's my best guess.  It always good to give location? 

Cheers, Steve

Yep, Black-eared Cuckoo. Well done. Another bird worth putting on eremaea. Lorne.
