Tjeldstø 04 May 2010 - Crane again!

Common Crane trane at Tjeldstø



Below are some pictures to prove that some common species are also seen occasionally at Tjeldstø....

Stuck inside the last couple of days. Frustrating to work for a living in early May!
Nipped out for a quick stroll and the first bird I saw a Common Crane trane in the reserve. The fourth record for Øygarden hot on the heels of the third at the weekend. This was the first bird I've seen on the ground rather than flying over. Wicked!

Images are just a random selection rather than the best of the lot.
Even managed to get it onto the house list thanks to a telescope in the living room and an understanding wife.
