First Cuckoo of the year! 18th April 2009
Saturday, and it's gardening for me in the morning sun. Not much chance to stop and watch but had to take a moment to listen to the unmistakable call of a Cuckoo, in fact my very first outside the UK, singing loudly in the olive trees a short distance down the hill. Quite possibly a very recent arrival… Read more

After a short drive from Lanjaron we parked… Read more
