Female Cuckoo (Cuculus canorus)

I had seen this bird earlier in the week and in the exact same spot where I managed to take this photograph.As I watched her several male cuckoo's were calling over heard.She didn't call and just say and was watching all the time in the tree.First I have seen a female so a real privilege for me.
