Yellow-billed Cuckoo

Sunday afternoon, Father's Day, enjoying a few moments in the woods up on the hill in Biscuit Hollow, I see this bird in the tree canopy. I didn't know what it was.
It was a real shock when I later identified it as a Yellow-billed Cuckoo. I knew my parents raised at least one real cuckoo in this valley. But I had no idea we had cuckoo birds around here.

You're right. Our parents raised at least one Cuckoo... and I think he happened to be in the valley on Father's Day! Neat bird.
