I heard a cuckoo early this morning, distantly and though Black billed. But now that you say that, it was just the single call. So now we have also had both in the area, after having neither for several years. I wonder if it is the gypsy moth caterpillars that are bringing them into the area? Thanks!

Coupled with the BBCU from last month, that's both cuckoos as new yard birds for me this season! Again, once I got outside it stopped calling and could not be found. Is it just me, or have the black-billed cuckoos, who seemed to be singing everywhere earlier in the season, been replaced by yellow-billed cuckoos lately? We had looks and calls from yellow-billed cuckoos on our Connecticut Hill field trip last Sunday.
