The Asian Koel is a very common member of the Cuckoo family found in Thailand and other parts of SE Asia, India and China. Many people say it is the noisiest, most annoying bird they have ever encountered. Whenever they hear the call they are always reminded of their travels to the region.
After living in thailand for almost a year it was beautiful at first, then it became annoying if they started too early, too loud and too closeby... but after leaving whenever I hear their call I feel homesick again. They're fantastic creatures :D
I like these guys, but not so much the one 25 feet from my window in Thailand. He may have had a few pieces of fruit thrown at him between 330 and 430 am 😂
Our local koel hangs out at this 100-year old white silk cotton tree surrounding by the entire neighborhood. Despite being in the middle of Bangkok, next to a train station, surrounded by a/c buildings, you could set your alarm to his call at 05.30 sharp. That is until he got older, I assume, because his call went from 05.30 to 04.00 to 02.00, and then I assume his successor took over and reset the cycle again at 05.30, and the cycle continues. Love it.
We have a similar Bird here in northern germany. The Austernfischer. Loud as heck, and shits everywhere. I hate those birds. And they have red eyes too!
3 am and I can't sleep because they are outside my bedroom window and performing concerts. One bird I can handle but more than 5 birds at the same time? Farewell my sleep.
Is that sarcasm in the Title? This is one of the most beautiful sounds of birds in the planet. It's always revered and appreciated for its beautiful sounds, specially in the spring seasons in the Hindu scriptures and poetry inspired from them in Bharat (India). The sound of koel is often used as a metaphor to beautiful female voice. I've been listening to the Koels sing everyday in these months of spring and summer and its absolutely divine and blissful. ✨💛✨
Definitely not sarcasm, they're annoying AF. Also, you clearly have no idea how true songbirds sound if you think this sounds beautiful LOL. Look up New England songbirds if you want to hear truly peaceful birds
I think you meant to write "Noisiest" not Nosiest lol. God we have one near our condo that never shuts up, I want to wring it's little neck!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@Mark-dk4fe Don't help, goes right through ear plugs AND headphones with white noise. It is a very loud and annoying animal that starts at 6AM and never shuts up anymore
Joining the cockatoos, ravens with googly eyes, and the local magpies that sound like a cross between a corrupted MP3 file and a rusty gate! They must fit right in....
For the tone deaf person who causes people of sarcasm, I sang at Lincoln center by the time I was nine so I am not tone deaf unlikevher. If you travel to SEVAsia this bird is extremely annoying. It doesn't shut up all day. Instead of motor mouth call someone this bird who has an annoying non stop voice. It's like listening to chandler bing's horrifically- voiced gf all day long or the Nanny.

I love the sound. So unique. And I’m always amused when I hear them in the background of Thai soap operas! 😂
Inescapable!

I love them. They’re the voice of Thailand.
Signature sound of Thailand....early morning when I'm trying to sleep and early evening when I'm trying to finish work. 😂

Bloody annoying call … drives us mad here in Thailand
They are just starting breeding so lots more calling for a couple of months 😁
Sometimes I catch myself asking this LOUD ASS bird… “is it really THAT serious?”
Lol I actually love these birds. Mimicked one last time in Thailand and had it talking back to me. I had no clue the name of them until now.
In Thailand them call him gao wao
Just like you at the disco looking for company among the loud music. Its only natural.

@@slemmens facts. I hate this bird. It sounds Demonic
Not annoying at all, it is the core of the nature

Lol hilarious
I asked a thai bloke he said it was a Wakwow
bird, just reminds me of Thailand, that and the street dogs arguing, 🐕
Not sure how you write it in English but sounds like "C(K)a Wow". Basically the noise the male bird makes. Females whilst loud are slightly different.
