CommentThis is the ssp. russatus (Gould’s Bronze-Cuckoo), which has a few distinct features to separate it from the nominate Little Bronze-Cuckoo. This image shows a few of these features, rufous edging to the flight feathers and (often) on the upper breast. The barring on the breast is not as fine and neat as the little. The upperparts are bronze or iridescent rufous, not iridescent green as in little.
EquipmentCanon EOS 7D Mark II + EF300mm f/2.8L IS USM Lens + 1.4 Extender (420mm). 1/400 sec, F5.6, ISO 1250
