Chance encounter with Chestnut-winged Cuckoo
BESG on 15 Dec 2007

The Chestnut-winged Cuckoo (Clamator coromandus)
is one of the more beautiful among the many cuckoos. The adult is a sight to behold and will no doubt excite the most hardener birders. What more is its impact on birders new to the scene.
The adult has a back of metallic glossy black, a white nape, chestnut wings, black tail, rufous throat, white belly and dark vent. Not forgetting the presence of the fabulous dark black crest.
