Observation details
Looked for the cuckoo early at the last place I had heard it yesterday which was northwest of the original sighting. Called it on the app and got no response. Then while searching for the possible roosting place of the Chuck-Wills-Widow (mot as Siri wrote "truck wheels weirdo") I heard it calling from far to the east. I then called it again with the app and saw it flying overhead but never got a picture. After a few minutes it began calling its cuckoo call some distance away to the north west. I obtained good recordings. At one point the bird did roost in a tree but I could not get a photo because it was behind much foliage. Did not see a second bird and could not confirm that it was the same bird that was calling.
