More Cuckoos

Four Cuckoos on Gower this morning is another new record for me. One at Oxwich, two at Ryers Down and another on Llanmadoc Hill; all calling. Is this evidence of a good year for them? Certainly looks promising.

Following on from Derek's observations, Mark Newton recorded up to four on Ryers Down and one calling from Penmynydd.

Still none our side of the county at Kenfig. They appear to have been lost as a breeding species in the last 3 years or so.

Mark Newton called me to say that there were 4 males all singing at Ryer's Down this evening!
