Amazing cuckoo chick photographs taken at WWT Arundel

17 July 2010

Below are some pictures taken at WWT Arundel Wetland Centre of cuckoos. The first is a rare photograph (and rare action) of a newly hatched cuckoo chick pushing the rival egg out of the nest, and the second of a slightly older chick feeding from the mum.

These amazing images were captured by Arundel's Grounds Manager, Paul Stevens.
