The Asian koel (Eudynamys scolopaceus) is a species of cuckoo bird found in South Asia, Southeast Asia, and parts of Australia. The male is glossy bluish-black with striking red eyes and a long tail, while the female is brown with white spots. They are known for their loud, distinctive calls, especially during the breeding season. The koel is a brood parasite, laying its eggs in the nests of other bird species, with the host birds raising the koel chicks. They primarily feed on fruits and insects, making them important for seed dispersal.
