Thursley common

Post by helired3 »

Made a trip to Thursley common to see the famous Colin the cuckoo. never been to this place but we where given directions to the field as it's not easy to find
also had a nice walk around the rest of the reserve.

Excellent set. Well done getting the unringed Redstart, too!

For anyone who hasn't been yet, last year Colin gave up some time in the early part of June, so not too many weeks left most likely.

Thank you guys. must admit seeing and hearing a cuckoo up that close was special.
