Cuckoo sp?

Is this just a Plaintive Cuckoo?

It seemed rather large and the bill looks large too (to say nothing of the caterpillar).
Photos taken today (Saturday 23rd March) on Po Toi.

Thanks John. I agree on Plaintive.

Now looking back, I think I saw this bird briefly the previous Saturday but didn't id it. I think the HKBWS boat trip saw it also on the Sunday, I presume it was a hepatic bird they saw.
