Double Trouble
After a week or so of gripping text messages, blog updates, gritty record shots from GM etc, I finally caught up with not one, but two cuckoo at West Hartford this afternoon. Doing a circuit west of the pool, the birds were occasionally vocal and under the duress of meadow pipit and the like. A first for me at this site, so appreciated as a claw back!
The pool was heaving with barn swallow, plus plenty of swift, sand martin and house martin.... A couple of sedge warbler sang but their grasshopper counterparts remain silent.
