    That’s all 🙂

    (Still waiting on the swallows, though they were seen 5 miles away over a week ago 🙁 )

    Same here – about half an hour ago.
    First swallow yesterday too, although they have been here since mid last week apparently…

    I’ve just heard and seen my first Cuckoo of the year on the Quantocks this morning, I thought I saw one last week though. No swallows or house martins yet.

    Red Kite on Saturday in mid Dorset, not seen one this far south and West. About a two miles south of Shaftesbury.

    Swallow last week but he/she looked a bit lonely.

    Last year I was out for a walk and got speaking to a couple who were excitedly looking through there binoculars. Let me have a look and it was a cuckoo and I was amazed at how big it was. Way bigger than a blackbird that I thought it would look like.
