Our local Cuckoo never showed up this year
- lost or dead on its migration (we will never know)
The upside is other species of bird will have been free from the Cuckoos chick taking over their nest. But still I missed the calling of the Cuckoo.
The Sea Eagles have nested again, what a boon to our small Island. The Mountain Hares would disagree, the eagles feed on them.
I guess there must be an upside and downside in all of nature, and even the downside helps the upside to materialise. Strange this passing of the seasons and our witness to all its phenomenon. Three score years and ten, and then gone to some other place, lost or dead, gone on our final migration.
