This Great Spotted Cuckoo eluded us for some time before we could get close enough for a photo. It's one of the frustrations of driving in the Kruger National Park (and most national parks) that you're restricted to a strip of road, while your quarry can disappear into the bush at any time. This cuckoo, while taunting us by flitting from tree to tree, at least kept close to the side of the road and eventually settled long enough for me to grab one picture.
