Today's Highlights

A single solitary crane was calling for company this morning. Thankfully 12 more joined him at the Nelson/Lyle hide where they stayed for the day and were seen by many visitors from there and the Main observatory too. They flew over Lady Fen in the late afternoon when 15 were counted.
