    Hear them or is that it every year. Now I know they are a bit of a naughty bird but it is so lovely to hear them isn't it - sort of makes you think we might get a summer.
    Two things are infinite: the Universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the Universe.

    We have one here on the Hill of Forss; we've heard him every day for more than a week now. My husband saw him last night flying by cuckoo'ing as he went.

    It's lovely lying in bed hearing the cuckoo early in the morning - bliss.

    Initially hear one in Torrisdale at about 17:30, several minutes later heard another one returning call.
    Went on for about 10 minutes with both birds trying to outdo one another
