Cuckoo Spit ….. Yuk!

Lavendar Fields
The thought of cuckoos flying about willy nilly and spitting randomly all over my lavender isn’t a particularly pleasant  or edifying thought.
cockoo spit
Then Auntie Jan told me that cuckoos spitting is a myth as they don’t actually have the throat-al mechanisms to spit. She said that the secretions that I have found on my said lavender plants were really the result of some beetle rubbing it’s legs together, which is equally as disgusting ….. I think I had better look on Wikipedia to get the real factoids.

    I had lavender in my garden in England. Great smell.
    Nice word, "throat-al."

    I seem to be waging a constant battle with followers who seem determined to help Darrell in turning our home into a distillery!
