June 16, 2026 - Little Bronze-Cuckoo (Chalcites minutillus) Found across Southeast Asia, much of New Guinea, and northern and eastern Australia, these small cuckoos live in and around forests, including swamps and mangroves, and in savannas, shrublands, and cultivated areas. They eat insects, foraging alone, in pairs, and in small flocks, sometimes with other species, mostly in trees and occasionally on or near the ground. Females lay their eggs in the nests of other birds, particularly gerygones, leaving the host birds to care for their chicks.
