I stood in sun sweating for 30 minutes waiting for this shot. I hear this bird a lot, but rarely see it.

Well done! Cuckoos are often easier to hear than see.

Great. I managed to get photos of one earlier this year. It was the first one I that I had ever seen. Nice shot.

This is my second shooting of this bird. I'll be keeping an eye out for him in the future. Thanks.

Well, you certainly got it!
I've not ever seen a cuckoo--good display you made.
