| Comments : | At 8-40am sighted 2 very large winged birds gliding east, south-east with the thermals, they reminded me of the Cranes I sighted while on my holidays in North Germany, So rang Rachel Hynes at 9am to let her know, and to say if anyone else sees them I will post my sighting up, She rang me at 5pm to confirm at 1540: Crane at Tacumshin.
