Well, after ten minutes I discovered 4 large birds flying west of our house. Those large birds were ofcourse quickly ID-ed because what else can large grey birds, with tall legs and long necks be? Cranes! (Demoisselle crane perhaps?) Following them through my scope both my dad and mom had a good view of them aswell. Still enjoying my new houslist species I heard a Grey wagtail calling on the rooftop, I failed to find it however.
Nearly 5 minutes later I saw another big flock of birds coming from the west again, this can't be true was what I was thinking on that particular moment. It was! 41 cranes were heading to us, and a few minutes later they passed our house, calling openly! Magnificant birds. I even succeeded to take a shot with 100mm focus on the group, I'll attach the photo later.
There's not much that could ruin my wonderful day anymore I hope!
Last shot is taken with 100mm.
Just replying to one message, though it goes for the blog in general: love the English birdnames ;-) Great pictures!
