Observation details
Very methodical the way the Mangrove Cuckoo’s scan trees looking for green caterpillars and other insects but mostly green caterpillars. I was able to see all 3 cuckoos. 1 was by the wooden bridge working the trees right above the picnic table along the canal and the other 2 were about a quarter mile from the end of the jetty. Female would call male when she wanted to mate, male would bring gift for courtship. Mated 3 times while I was there. Female also foraged under mangrove roots, looked like she was eating little black beetles.
