ReplyDeletePhil ,
ReplyDeleteYou did well to get that close to a Cuckoo out in the open .
By the way , you were 'checked out' by a Canada Goose , not Greylag .
thanks for pointing that out Greenie, have ammended now
ReplyDeleteHi Phil, looks like you had a good return for your 105 mins, managing to spot the Cuckoo is always a bonus!
