The Indian Cuckoo (Cuculus micropterus) is a migratory bird found primarily in the Indian subcontinent. It is known for its distinctive call, which resembles a repetitive "cu-coo" sound. This bird typically has a slender body, long tail, and a slightly curved bill, making it easily recognizable in its natural habitat. The Indian Cuckoo is a brood parasite, meaning it lays its eggs in the nests of other bird species, such as warblers and sparrows. The host birds then raise the cuckoo chicks, often at the expense of their own offspring. This behavior is a fascinating aspect of the cuckoo's life cycle.
