Gray bird with curved beak

by Rose
(AR)

Two of these birds started showing up at birdbath during our prolonged heat spell. Almost as big as a robin, very distinctive markings where white breast and throat meet grey. Yellow on bill and rufus colored wings visible only when wings are spread.

Thanks for the prompt answer. Yellow Billed Cuckoo it is. Also known as a rain-crow.
