Almost makes sense as they are known to just give their eggs away...

"The opinion is held by some observers that Nature has not intended the Cuckoo to build a nest, but influences it to lay its eggs in the nests of other birds, and intrust its young to the care of those species best adapted to bring them to maturity."
actually, they toss the other birds' eggs out of the nest, and then move their own to the now empty nest. the victim of the crime then unwittingly raises the offspring of the murderer. damn cuckoos.
