No sooner has I moaned about it, a Cuckoo (the Cuckoo?)appeared over my head at Glynde Station this morning. Remind me to moan more often.
About the same time, a Little Egret flew over the village toward Glynde Levels, and Whitethroat, Long-tailed Tit and Swallow were all highly visible from the bridge.
There’s now a rather jealous-making account of Saturday’s Bee-eater sighting at Southease on the SOS sightings board.
Apparently the bird was seen rather well (if briefly) as it headed north-east over the Downs at 2.55pm. At that precise moment, I was in Beddingham – which incidentally lies just north-east of Southease.
I wonder what I was doing when it flew over my head? [sobs into keyboard]
