Cuckoo Call 2022

Heard the cuckoo on my walk this evening in east Donegal. Always a privilege to hear the cuckoo, that feeling of hearing them for the first time each Spring never gets old.

Thats well early - though I do see increasing reports of Swallows around the country too. Usually get both on my place in North Mayo around the middle of April
