The Asian Cuckoo – Koel – Alphabet challenge K

The Koels are the first birds to welcome the dawn. This is the female bird, the male is black, jet black with red brooding eyes.

These birds are known to lay their eggs in the nests of other birds and rightly called brood parasites. They belong to the family of Cuckoos. These birds are found in the Asia , Australia and Pacific regions.

Among the birds I think the female koels look much better than the males, But then beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.

These birds are very shy and its rather difficult to see them out in the open. However, these is possible very early in the morning.

  1. I have a digital images folder dedicated to these birds that visit us every day. They are very fond of the noni fruit. Their chirps are quite soothing
