COMMON CRANE in Bedfordshire today
At 2:15 today while watching the somewhat depleted flock of corn buntings a COMMON CRANE came into view over Stotfold. It spent at least ten minutes soaring and turning to gain height before heading off in a northerly direction towards Biggleswade. Really great views as it was only about a hundred feet high at first. Just wish I had taken my DSLR or digiscope with me! Never mind, it looked absolutely majestic in binocs. (Dave Hawkins)
