What a fabulous video!! Hawthorn has arrived big time in my life this year. Lovely to see old tradition & reverence for nature being kept alive. Thank you do much.

Lovely hearing the cuckoo around 19 minutes in!

When I first moved to Japan many years ago, I remember being annoyed at the person who had the broken cuckoo clock! During the summer, it gets light very early and the cuckoos would serenade me awake! Grrr.
