Media notes
The bird was turning around and singing (for the first few song notes i.e. the first c30 seconds or so) before it stayed still on the perch and continued to sing. Later, towards the end (after the last song note was delivered), another cuckoo flew in, perched a couple of feet away from the cuckoo I was already recording and then I am not sure which of the two delivered the monosyllabic notes at the end. The cuckoos then flew off together right after.
