Saw a silent Yellow-billed Cuckoo around noon today at Hawthorn Orchard, at the northwest corner in the clearing near the recway. That and five silent relatively-photogenic Scarlet Tanagers (three males, two females) were the highlights of my brief late-morning visit there. Suan --

Hi All, I am wondering if anybody on the listserve is consistently hearing a singing (cu-cu-cu) Black-billed Cuckoo in our area. I would like to try to get a high-quality recording of this vocalization from this species to add to the Macaulay Library collection. If you happen to hear this
