The Malagasy coucal or Madagascar coucal (''Centropus toulou'') is a species of cuckoo in the family Cuculidae. It is found in Madagascar and in the Seychelles, where it occurs on Aldabra and was formerly present on Assumption Island and Cosmoledo. Its natural habitats are dense vegetation in subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, mangrove forests, rough grassland, marshes and reedbeds. ==Description== The Malagasy coucal is a medium-sized bird with the adult length being in the range . The male is smaller than the female, weighing about to the female's , but otherwise the sexes are similar in appearance. In breeding plumage the bird is black, glossed with green, except for the tips of its wings which are brown and its mid and lower back which are reddish-brown. In non-breeding plumage the head, neck and throat are brown streaked with cream, the wings reddish-brown, the uppertail coverts black with some pale barring, the tail blackish-brown with faint barring and the belly blackish-brown. The iris is red, the bill black in breeding plumage and pale in non-breeding plumage, and the feet are grey to black. The call is a descending series of notes that sound like water pouring out of a bottle, and is often sung as a duet with the bird's mate.
