Sandhill Crane!!!

Well I guess this will never happen again....

The Aberdeenshire Sandhill was tracked from Northumberland to Yorkshire today, hugging the coast - making it pretty straight forward to twitch. An hour and a quarter's wait between Whitburn and us jingled the nerves a bit but It arrived in the end and flew straight past us and through Hartlepool.

Magnificent!

Just over a week to Corvo..... :-)
