Hearing a cuckoo today for the first time probably this century around here, thought at first that some b****r had bought a cuckoo clock as I first heard the calls just before noon, but there were more this afternoon ! We must have had a change in farming practice without me noticing. :)
We have dozens of the things here, every year without fail! Saw the first Ospray of the year yesterday and Eagles are nesting on nearby peak! Sometimes you have to remind yourself that others are not always as lucky.

Very true, I saw my first ever Dipper in the burn last week, not an Osprey I know, but I was delighted just the same :)

Dad this morning also made me laugh he was hunting all around the shearing machine while holding the hand piece and then goes, "How you switch this on, do you have press the red button on the extension reel?" I walk up and pull the toggle rope. "Ooooooh"
