all the under part was dark brown. Some have the head of 
a uniform ash grey; and A. E. Knox, Esq. describes two, one 
of them as having the upper part of the head, the wings, 
and tail of a dark brown, and all the rest of the plumage of 
a beautiful cream white, or light straw-colour; the other as 
much resembling a Cuckoo in general appearance. Sometimes 
the whole plumage is strongly glossed with a purple tint. 
One is described by Temminck, as having the head, neck, and 
all the under parts, yellowish, with dark shafts to the feathers.
