Talkback: Cuckoo

We have at least one in the valley below us, which we can hear when the wind is easterly. They missed a year last year, but were there the year before. They seemed to arrive almost a month late this year - well into June, if our local cuckoo fair at the beginning of May is anything to go by!

  • hello pippa
    I would very much like call upon your gardening skills, in the diagnosing of a problem I have in my greenhouse. I am a first time grower, and have noticed that the leaves on the tomatoes plants I am Growing are starting to turn yellow.I also have four strawberry plants,and there leaves are drying out and turning brown. Am I doing something wrong or is it some kind of fungal infection. I would appreciate any help you can give me.

    Respectfully

  • You are very lucky. I live in cheshire and I have no heard a cuckoo for years.
  • Yes, I gather that cuckoos are being heard less widely this year, lets hope it is just a 'blip' and that there will be plenty more about next year!
  • Strange. I'm in Surrey, and haven't heard one this year.
