Hi Nige,
this was most definitely a Fan-tailed Cuckoo - it made endless descending calls and also made its secondary call a number of times. There were two of them calling to each other. Apologies for the quality of the photos!

Nigel. Would you please sort out what is happening here. It is not a Koel and seems to have changed identity under you hand. BLSH4

Sorry, yes I agree it is a Fan-tailed Cuckoo.
I must have mistakenly agreed with CarbonA1 rather than Span102
