Lyn, you must take a trip into the wooded countryside. I can't believe you have live soooo long and never heard a Cuckoo.

  Hi All, I have viewed all of your posts on the climate change - I was in the UK two years ago and it was the most beautiful weather I have ever seen, I took raincoats, umbrellas, sweaters etc. but didn't use any of them.  The relatives I visited thought I must have brought the warm weather with me, well I hope that happens again this year, nothing more discouraging than paying for a tour and only seeing fog - I did order sun for the UK this year.

The weather is changing everywhere, in eastern Canada we are getting birds we have never seen before, a lot more snow this year but that is wonderful, it means my plants will survive and the wells may be full.  There is a flood warning for Fredericton, NB - the snow has been unbeleivable in northern NB.  A couple of nights ago Edmonton, AB received 25 cm of snow, yes things are changing.  I do hope things even out soon.

Point the way, Peter, I'm sure if it's not a hybrid I'll be able to identify it.
