File:A Fork Tailed Drongo Cuckoo (51386811095).jpg

A wonderful sighting of this rather uncommon bird. The bird migrates from south west of India to the South eastern and central parts for a few months of the year around this time.

It is a Cuckoo by call and Drongo by look. It has a long 6 note call that sounds like a Cuckoo call and without the call, is a bit hard (for me atleast) to differentiate between the regular Black Drongo. I heard this bird's call a few times in the last few days outside my home but never could sight it. It prefers thick canopy areas and prefers to migrate this season due to the abundance of caterpillars during the rainy season. Shot this at a nearby forest 2 hours away from my place

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback.
