The Fascinating Greater Coucal Meet the Greater Coucal (CENTROPUS SINENSIS), also known as the Crow Pheasant—a striking bird with deep rufous wings, glossy black plumage, and piercing ruby-red eyes. Recognized by its deep “oop-oop-oop” calls, this monogamous bird roams the ground in search of insects, snails, small vertebrates, and even bird eggs. Unlike other cuckoos, it does not lay eggs in other birds' nests. Despite being a weak flier, its presence in diverse habitats makes it a captivating sight in the wild. According to the IUCN Red List, the Greater Coucal is classified as a species of Least Concern (LC) Watch this video to learn more about this remarkable member of the cuckoo family!
