Basic stats
Clutch size
3 eggs in India; 2 in Southeast Asia; 4 in Taiwan
The lesser coucal's usual clutch is three eggs in India, two in Southeast Asia and four in Taiwan. Both sexes incubate the eggs and care for the young (Wikipedia, general species account).
That is all that could be read for the Bhutan guide. No description, size, range, habitat or diet information was found, so none is stated, and the entry is kept short.
