I would think it is an Oriental Cuckoo due to the tail pattern but curious to hear what others think.

I heard somebody talking about separating Oriental to Lesser Cuckoo by Iris colour.  If this a common sense?

Thanks for reply.  I am confused.  This is an Oriental or Lesser Cuckoo?

p.s. no calls heard

I would suggest the rump is too pale for Lesser Cuckoo but it is sort of difficult to see. Any more photos?

Reply Brendank:-
I am afraid it was the best photo I've got.
