Sorry cezzy1234, but we dont get storks here.
It could have been Herons though.
Did they look like this?

Where are you going to see humming birds?

Is this a general holiday or a specialised bird watching holiday?

I hope that you enjoy your trip very much, lucky you. Take many photos and share them with us when you return.

Has anyone heard the first cuckoo of the year in Caithness or has the cold weather held them back.
I heard one in Ardnamurchan on the 20th. of last month which I'm sure is way before anything I've heard before. Does anyone write in to the Groat with this information like they do south of the border to the Times?

I am going to see them in Turkey, you always see them flitting around the flowers, absolutely beautiful but impossible to take a photo of lol I have tried!
