Pied Bronze-Cuckoo Chalcites crassirostris

Striking small cuckoo endemic to the Tanimbar, and Kai and Tayando Islands (where rare) of the southeastern Moluccas. Male is dark iridescent green above and white below, with a bright red patch of bare facial skin around each eye, and a large white wing patch. Female is similarly patterned but duller. Usually observed in thicker vegetation at the edges of dense forest or in regenerating growth. Has two primary vocalizations: a fast, slightly descending trill, and a short series of high-pitched piping notes that trail off.
