    Did my ears decieve me.

    I think not, I have a witness.
    We spent a lovely afternoon up the Luxulyan valley in Prideaux woods yesterday, during the walk as we passed under the old railway/viaduct we heard the unmistakable cry of a CUCKOO!! I was quite astounded by this as it's the earliest in the year I've ever heard one, three times it called and then silence for the rest of the day. I thought "Aww he's shagged himself out with all that racket and gone to nick someones nest for a kip."

    Any one else heard one yet?

    I totally reject your reality and substitute my own.

    Another cuckoo thread, guess they didn't see this one.
    I heard a couple this year, but not as early as your post. Maybe we're in for a rise in numbers at last.
