Cucxow.—This species visits us in the middle of April, and is 
heard till the beginning of July, when it again departs; but the 
young birds appear to remain for a much longer period, as I have 
occasionally observed them in September. I never found the egg 
of this bird myself, but have seen one which was taken at Great 
Swaffham from the nest of a Hedge Accentor, (Accentor 
Modularis.)
