Female Cuckoo (Brown morph)

Female Cuckoo (Brown morph) (Cuculus canorus)

Well the weather broke yesterday and we had sandstorms. I don't know why I bothered going out because visibility was down to less than 100 yards. Anyway I did finally manage to get this shot of a female cuckoo in brown morph. I was on my way out of the farm when I saw her in a nice pose. I'd been trying to get close all morning with no luck and had given up. I quickly got the camera out again and this is the result.
