This bird is famous for laying its eggs in the nests of other birds.
The Chestnut-winged Cuckoo inhabits forests and woodlands across South and Southeast Asia. Like many cuckoos, it is a brood parasite, relying on other bird species to raise its chicks. Adults feed mainly on hairy caterpillars, insects, and other small invertebrates that many birds avoid.
A clever survivor of the forest, turning one of nature’s most unusual parenting strategies into an art of survival.
