alpenrose Apr 2023 8:54pm, 8 Apr 2023 59,157 posts	0 alpenrose Saw a kingfisher today, it was sat on a branch and quite a few birders were there with their big cameras. We watched it for ages and it didn't fly off. Saw it (one) later when we went back, just flying down the river.

um Apr 2023 2:44pm, 9 Apr 2023 7,260 posts	0 um We heard, but didn't see a cuckoo today. Near Holly Hatch, NF. We suspected a swallow yesterday close to home, but it zipped past very quickly and only 1.
