                        Some of a Great Spotted Cuckoo at Portland today, it didn't want to show itself fully.
                        We didn't go there to see it, it was on a walk around Portland and saw a line of 'twitchers' so I had to see what they were watching!:biggrin:
                        They come up as far as Spain and Turkey and predate Magpies, this one like the Red Footed Falcon last week over shot by a few hundred miles.:scratch:

                                Unfortunately this isn't the best of shots. Can anyone identify this bird for me please, it's nesting in my son's garden in Ohio, USA.
