Frequently asked questions

How many cuckoos are found in Indonesia?

57 cuckoos that we profile appear on Indonesia's eBird-reported checklist. The full A–Z list is on this page; the real total can shift as eBird records are added.

Are all of these cuckoos really found there?

Yes — each one is on Indonesia's eBird checklist (reported by birders to the Cornell Lab's eBird), and each of these cuckoos belongs to the family group named on this page. We don't rank them by abundance, because that varies by season and locale.
