Summary

[edit]
Description

These birds are always seen in pairs i.e. the pair stays close, flies together and hunts together. While the other one was hunting caterpillars (Cuckoos seem to love caterpillars), this one was looking for a bush to hunt. The birds are brood parasites and I suspect this one is looking for nests as well. This is the breeding season which the birds plan to match their hosts. Behind the bush are large trees with several Red Vented Bulbul nests, maybe Tailorbird nests, and there are several shots and records of Bulbuls and Tailorbirds feeding juvenile Cuckoo's.

Thanks in advance for your views / feedback. Much appreciated.
