Yes certainly a cuckoo and yes some optimism is appropriate. Only options
are juvenile Brush or Fan-tailed. I suggest the former, for these reasons,
in I think this order of importance, though this may be wrong: fairly
strongly marked upperparts with rufous feather edges on wings, fairly
strongly marked with speckles on underparts, tail feathers graduated from
long in middle to shorter outer ones but not by a big difference, no sign of
an eye ring (although that may just be the photo).
