Channel-billed cuckoo in Ficus benjamina Heinrich Gerns Park Wavell Heights

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Channel-billed cuckoo, (Scythrops novaehollandiae), the world's largest cuckoo, is a magnificent sight during summer as it flies effortlessly overhead, trumpeting loudly. It parasitizes Torresian crows, which despite their intelligence abandon their nest in vain pursuit of the male cuckoo, allowing the female to deposit an egg in the unguarded nest. The birds winter in the tropics and in Papua New Guinea.
