On the behaviour and vocalizations of female Common Cuckoos Cuculus canorus at the host nest

Bird Study, 2021
Using direct observations of Common Cuckoo Cuculus canorus behaviour at 53 nests of three Acrocephalus host species, we recorded no vocal activity by females shortly before, during, or after egg-laying, which suggests that female bubbling calls during ...

The structural function of the bubbling call of the female common cuckoo (Cuculus canorus)

Ibis
The vocalizations of male Cuculus cuckoos exhibit clear interspecific differentiation, whereas female vocalizations, characterized by the distinctive bubbling calls, exhibit a high degree of similarity across species.

Errors in egg‐laying by female Common Cuckoo Cuculus canorus in nests of its common host

, 2020
Dozens of studies have documented that brood parasites are well adapted to a brood parasitic lifestyle but not all parasitism events are successful. Co‐evolution between brood parasites and their hosts is a dynamic process so it is reasonable to expect ...

Egg colour influences egg removal by common cuckoos (Cuculus canorus).

Behavioural Processes
Brood parasitic cuckoos usually remove one host egg before laying their own. The purpose of this behaviour is still not fully understood. Recent studies that investigated cognitive mechanisms underlying egg removal found that cuckoos preferentially ...
