Chrysococcyx klaas Klaas's Cuckoo Meitjie
Modimolle, Oct 2015
A breeding summer visitor, present between Sep and Mar. Fairly common and widespread across the Waterberg, less so in the surrounding thorn savanna (61% in, 39% out; recorded in 54% of the Waterberg pentads); frequents woodland; would be much overlooked were it not for the male's characteristic 'mei-tjie' call. Breeds in summer; parasitic, sunbirds are favoured hosts in the area.
