Observation details
A surprise ID this morning, a recording of a Yellow-billed Cuckoo. I heard but did not catch sight of the bird which hides without movement. BirdNET gives a 100% confidence on the ID. For the recording presented here, I merged the two tracks, did a light noise filter (reduction by 6dB only) followed by a high-pass filter passing above 600 Hz with a low rolloff 6dB per octave. Did that twice to beat down some unwanted low-frequency wind noise.
