Clear sunny day, warm, wind SW moderate. Large flock of Common Crane gathering over Etableau and flew off NE in three large skeins [upward of 200 birds] followed by a second small group that flew straight towards us.
The noise was incredible. They flew straight overhead and I almost fell over backwards [Falklands Penguin Syndrome!] as I took the following shot ... I was saved from total embarassment by the trunk of a willow!
Surprise German Holiday Day 5

Yesterday I spent half a day in Fulda and half a day driving too and from
Frankfurt airport. Then we enjoyed tea on our terrace.
