Observation details
First Yellow-Billed Cuckoo of the season. Heard nothing from it, but it eventually flew closer seemingly in response to a Great Crested Flycatcher calling nearby (which I did not see, only hear). The cuckoo acted as if it were trying to discern where the flycatcher's loud call was coming from. It hung around for about five minutes before blending back into the locust grove.
