Sulawesi Brush Cuckoo

Cacomantis virescens

Least Concern

The Sulawesi Brush Cuckoo is a cuckoo of Sulawesi and nearby islands. It moves through trees, scrub, reedbeds, or open country searching for caterpillars, insects, fruit, and small animals, often using a long tail and quiet, deliberate movements to slip through cover. Many cuckoos lay eggs in other birds' nests, while coucals, anis, and couas usually raise their own young.
