   Bird Lore
   The wild birds commonly found in my district are: the cuckoo, corncrake, swallow, swift, martin, lapwing gull and the numerous other birds like robin, sparrow, etc. The cuckoo leaves this district in July, the corncrake in August and the swallows, swift and martins some time later. When the swallows are about to go you see them in flocks on telegram poles and such places, then after a few days, they start off southwards. Before the cuckoo goes, you notice her voice getting quite hoarse, and some say, she never leaves our country but is changed into the hawk. In this district the robin builds its nest in a close hedge, the lark in a meadow field, the corncrake in a meadow field, the swallow in an old barn, the sparrow in the eave of the house, the wren in a hole in the wall, jackdaws in a hole int he wall, and maigs high up in the tree-tops, and all other birds in trees, hedges and sometimes lone bushes.
