Isn't it magical how we can start to identify birds with our eyes closed? My mental list of bird songs is very small but I hope it will expand soon! For the past few nights I have been interested to hear the persistent call of the Red-chested Cuckoo (Piet-my -vrou) competing for air time with a Nightjar (?presumably the Fiery-necked Nightjar). Round about 3am and beyond. Vicinity of Park Street. Is it the full moon or is this normal for the Cuckoo??
