Lovely sighting. Good eye contact. Did it take-off after this photograph was taken? If its a crop a bit more space on top and bottom would have been good. Thanks for sharing.

Eurasian/Common-cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) has not been seen by me for long in my village at Bagnan, Dist. Howrah (downstream Damodar river), you have seen it upstream (north-west). Commonly heard in my village during winter nights, is call 'Pee-kahan, pee-kahan' of Common Hawk-cuckoo (Hierococcyx varius).
