Black-eared Cuckoo

Chrysococcyx osculans (Gould, J 1847)

The black-eared cuckoo is a species of cuckoo in the family Cuculidae. Found across Australia, it migrates to eastern Indonesia and southern New Guinea. They are usually observed by themselves or in a pair as they don't raise their own young, rather they leave eggs in another species nest to be raised by host. Source: Wikipedia
