A parasitic relationship. The Cuckoo lays its egg in a warblers (E.g. Reed warbler) nest and the cuckoo hatch-ling expels the eggs of the warbler. Therefore one species (the Cuckoo) benefits and the other one is at a disadvantage (the warbler). So the symbiotic relationship is parasitic.
A cuckoo is a type of bird
The Jacobin Cuckoo (Pied Cuckoo, Pied Crested Cuckoo) is known as the Chatak or Papiha in Indian Mythology.
A Cuckoo is a bird. It lays one egg in a nest of another bird species. When the Cuckoo chick hatches, it ejects from the nest the eggs and/or chicks of the birds which built the nest, and is fed all the food by the "parent" birds. The parent Cuckoo takes no part in bringing up it's chick. The Cuckoo grows to be a large bird and can look daft sitting on a tiny nest, being fed by the small "parent" birds like finches, etc. The name Cuckoo comes from it's call - "Cook-koo" as in the Cuckoo clock. There is also a Flower called the Cuckoo.
Shrikes eat bugs. When they are too full to eat they hunt additional bugs and store them by sticking them on the thorns of trees.
