Observation details

While walking on the main road from the River St. entrance, I flushed what I thought was going to be a Northern Mockingbird based on the sound produced by the panicked flapping. I was surprised to see that the bird did not go far and that it was a Yellow-billed Cuckoo. I managed to get a few images of the bird through a small window in the tangles. Photos.
