The Fan-tailed Cuckoo (Cacomantis flabelliformis) is native to forested areas in the Australasia region. Like other cuckoo species, it practises brood parasitism, laying its eggs in the nests of other birds like fairywrens or thornbills. Its diet is omnivorous and includes fruits and vegetables, insects, reptiles, mammals, and birds.Photo: JJ Harrison.
