My 1st image and sighting of a Cuckoo!
This chap landed on a dead branch above a reed bed, quite far away. I had to do what I could because of a heavy crop!. Pleased how it turned out!

I've seen Yellow-billed Cuckoos here but they love to stay in the thick of things. Seeing one on a perch like yours would be perfect. Steve
