Audio duration (s) | 37.6 |
ID confidence and determination | less than 100% [Ed.: description does not match either Brush Cuckoo or Moluccan Cuckoo Cacomantis heinrichi perfectly, the latter because the throat should be rufous according to Coates and Bishop; vocalization rather different from C. variolosus, only other species expected] |
Sound types present | song calls of unidentified cuckoo seen fairly well at 480 m in primary forest inland of Pulau Obi. Like a Plaintive Cuckoo but dark plumage, brown above, greyish cheeks and throat, rufous-orange underparts, tail darker than back, undertail barred with white, b |
Grade of best portion | good very beginning of this call was missed; much quieter start. |
