starts withThe chestnut-breasted cuckoo is about 22–25 centimetres (8.7–9.8 in) long. Adults have a dark slaty grey-blue head, back and wings, deep rufous breast and underparts and barred black and white tail. Immatures are dull greyish cinnamon on the head and wings, grading to dull mid brown on the outer parts of the wings, and pale buff or cinnamon on the breast and underparts. The tail is barred mid brown and white. Both adults and immatures have a yellow orbital eye ring.
The chestnut-breasted cuckoo is slightly smaller than the similar brush cuckoo (C. variolosus ) and fan-tailed cuckoo (C. flabelliformis ), but the breast and underparts of the adult chestnut-breasted cuckoo is much darker.
