Abstract
⺠We examined effectiveness of cuckoo-hawk mimicry against the great reed warbler. ⺠Great reed warblers attacked both cuckoo and sparrowhawk mounts near their nest. ⺠Great reed warblers discriminated the cuckoo from the sparrowhawk. ⺠Cuckoo-hawk mimicry is not effective against more aggressive hosts.
