Yes, I heard one about 2/3 days ago in the village where I drop my kids off to school - it was sunny and was a lovely 'moment'.
We had a kingfisher frequent our pond last year, that was a 'moment' too. :D

I'm south of Bert and due west of GP but we don't get cuckoos here  :(    Too high?  Wrong terrain?
