Cuckoo

We saw this bird yesterday and everybody had an opinion of what it was. I had never seen any bird like it before so I just knew that nobody knew what they were talking about. We were leaving so didn't have a chance to get any binoculars to investigate any further. I saw him again this afternoon while I was cleaning and have identified it as a yellow-billed cuckoo. I love when I get to use my bird book to identify a new species of bird that I've not yet seen. I want to hear him cuckoo now so I'll be listening carefully while I'm out and about.
