Coulicou à bec noir - Black-billed Cuckoo

Laval

Assez rare et difficile à le voir dégager cet oiseau furtif!

This very shy one is so secretive and hard to find. I just had a few seconds to take this picture!

Sony Alpha α77 II
1/800s f/6.3 at 600.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

The cuckoos are very shy and secretive - been seeing/hearing a good population of Yellow-billed Cuckoos, but I rarely see the Black-billed - - Nice capture!

En effet plutôt rare, difficile à repérer et encore plus difficile à photographier, très belle observation!!!
