Kuhoo kuhoo Koel

(ये सारी कोयलें बनी हैं आज डाकिया
कुहू-कुहू में चिट्ठियां पढ़े मजाकिया

Yeh saari koyalein bani hain aaj daakiyan
Kuhoo kuhoo me chitthiyan padhe mazakiyaan

All these cuckoos have become postmen today,
Cuckooing, they read my letters in jokes)

Have you heard this lovely song? This is Sawwar loon song from the movie Lootera. While listening to this song I am reminded of beautiful song of Asian Koel in the early morning and in the eveing at the backyard hidding on the top of tree.

Many get confused between male Asian Koel and a crow. We can easily differentiate between them by their glistening black with yellowish green and crimson eyes and its tail is long. Female Koel is brown spotted and barred with white.
