Titel: Smallest Cuckoo in the world (size of a House Sparrow)
Beskrivelse: Lakeside tree; male ID'ed by red eyering.
Could be an interbreed between the two ssp russatus and barnardi (under-tail coloring seems a mix). Some books claims the ssp russatus to be a full species: Gould's Bronze-cuckoo.

I think (like also my Australian birding pal) that this ID is either a technical mistake or a wrong ID. In my opinion we are looking at a bird 2 to 2,5 x bigger than world's smallest Cuckoo (Little Bronze-cuckoo is the size of a House Sparrow). Our suggestion and belief is that it is actually a Pallid Cuckoo (Cacomantis pallidus) shown on the picture.
