Have you ever heard the natural sound of the cuckoo bird in China or anywhere else?

Most of the time, when I think of the cuckoo bird, I tend to think of the cuckoo clock. I had never really thought of the clock imitating a real bird. However, lately, during my morning walks around the track on my campus, I’ve been hearing a “cuck-oo, cuck-oo” sound coming from the trees. I asked some friends about it and they told me it was the “du4 juan1″ (杜鹃) and describe its sound as “boo-koo.”

Here’s a site with some pictures:

Have you ever heard one?
Muller (sorry, I can’t do the two dots over the “u”), what do you mean, “What kind of a question is this?” Is a GENUINE question! I never heard this bird call before I moved to northwest China. I’ve been noticing it quite a bit in recent days, so I decided to ask about it. I thought the question would be a nice change of pace from the political overtones this section has taken.
I’m not responsible for the referenced website. If you note, I used it to show the PICTURES of the birds, not the sounds. I’m sorry the sound links don’t work . . . .

      I heard the natural sound too long ago when I live near Tea Gardens.
      You must understand that Tea Gardens require protection from direct sunlight, so lotaa trees are planted around tea bush to give them shade. It becomes a sort of natural forest to many degree.

      In tea garden you get to see tots and lots of birds and hear their suweet voice all day long. But Kuku sing in morning. You must woke early morning to hear kuku song.

      Now I live in big city and hear no kuku song.

      EDIT @ Amber Pitt
      Your cell expires too early.
      I suggest you don’t use Chinese cells/batteries.
      They have a questionable record.
