Fenland Birds

Went out with Tom late afternoon for Water Pipits at Sutton Gault, and Cranes at Guyhirn. Both took a bit of finding (the Cranes the site rather than the birds). At least one of the former, but more likely four (very difficult to see for sure in the long grass whether the other birds were Water Pipit or Meadow Pipit), and six of the later.
