We did not succeed in getting any Cuckoos at Fuji, although we 
frequently heard the notes of several species. They are so constantly 
hunted by the natives for medicinal purposes that it is impossible to 
approach them in the breeding season. At Chiusenji we occasionally 
saw them flitting silently through the trees along the lake shore.
