Common Cuckoo Sound

The invention of the cuckoo clock is attributed to German clockmaker Franz Ketterer, who attempted to recreate the crow of a rooster in his clocks at the start of the 18th century. In fact, his system of bellows and whistles that produced two different notes actually imitated the call of the common cuckoo.
The Common Cuckoo or Eurasian Cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) is a usually summer migrant to Europe and Asia, and winters in Africa. Found in woodland, heathland, farmland with hedges, marshes with scattered bushes. "COO-koo" song (like a cuckoo clock ) often given from open perch. Note long wings and tail, barred belly, rather small bill. Flight direct and often low, suggesting a hawk or falcon. Extremely similar in appearance to various other Cuculus cuckoos across its range; note the combination of white vent, staring yellow irises, and overall large size. It is a brood parasite and lays eggs in nests of other birds, particularly pipits and reed warblers, which raise the young cuckoos.

Sounds just like a "coo coo bird clock"

[lavaicenotl]

Whenever you have a bird sitting on eggs than you hear this sound and knowing what’s going to happen

[mr.equity]

Very relaxing sound, I can imagine myself in a meadow early in the morning enjoying the cold breeze with a campfire and some tea whilst this birds sings me the untold stories of nature.

[JeSsEmCcOy]

What a famous (or infamous, depending on how you see it) sound

[alihijazi]

This bird actually has a very cute sound unlike the channel billed cuckoo which has one of the creepiest bird sounds

[maryledenican]

Wonder why people chose this evil bird to make a clock over all other birds ??

[Gummigoo-Digital_Circus]

😯 I'm so surprised by a common cuckoo

[Cor_de-lius]

That's why the Cuckoo Clock is called "Cuckoo Clock".

They may be avian bastards, but their sounds are quiet lovely.
Are they the reasons why humans build bird houses?.

[FeliDJrah]

Fun fact: only the male cuckoos make that call.

[TadpoleHappy]

If birds can sing a human songs, for cuckoo it should be Rammstein "Mutter"

[chloeepshigoda]

amazing sound I can imagine that I was outside the bird came out from it's clock and letting me know that was one with nature

The coo coo bird never makes a nest to lay her eggs. The female coo coo ends up laying one of her eggs in another birds nest that is already full of eggs.

1. Wait tell the other birds nest is unguarded.
2. The coo coo flies in and takes one of the eggs and replaces it with one of her own.
3. Fly away before the other birds come back.

They call the coo coo bird a parasitic bird. Aka the motherless coo coo bird.

It sounds like it's popping out of a clock.

You talking to me ⁉️ You talking to me ⁉️
