  cuckoo birds of africa
In Southern Africa, all cuckoos are migratory (the Klaas's and Emerald Cuckoos appear to be resident in the warmer east), arriving from Central or Eastern Africa at the start of the rainy season in late September and October.
It is doubtful whether parasitic cuckoos are monogamous, although mating is at least preceded with a choice food morsel (courtship feeding) presented to a female by a male.
Most cuckoos are able to produce eggs which match the coloration of their selected host (how is not known!) and the hatching period is often shorter because the female cuckoo can retain her egg in her oviduct for up to a couple of days before laying.
