The Brush Cuckoo (Cacomantis variolosus) is a medium sized cuckoo with a length of 26cm. They are found in dense coastal forests of eastern and northern Australia. In southeast Australia their preference for tall moist eucalypt forests coupled with their all brown plumage and preference for the foraging just under the canopy, makes them a very difficult bird to observe. In 30 years of birding I have only photographed this species once before, in the late 1980s. More
