We were discussing the other day that whilst nearly everyone has heard about cuckoos and their behaviour yet nobody had ever seen one or even knew what they looked like !!

Very pretty, the bluebells are in decline but still worth a look

…I went to Taverham Mill Nature Reserve last week and the woodland areas there were a hazy blanket of bluebells also…back in the day as a child, that was quite a commonplace sight but not so much now, it’s very stunning…

Oh OK, I always give out about them when I hear them saying they've probably kicked out and killed loads of baby birds to steal their nest and their parents There seems to be plenty around Kerry direction anyway
