Cuckoo

I would post this in Calderdale Birds blog but I don't know how.

Heard a Cuckoo this afternoon calling for 5 minutes from trees in Hall Wood, Todmorden. This is the first cuckoo I have heard in quite a number of years in Todmorden and the first ever in Hall Wood.

  3. in 2009, whilst living in Todmorden, I heard a cuckoo off of the Burnley Road on 24 April. Didn't hear it last year, so glad to hear it is back.
