Sorry about the watery blobs on the lens, but it was just beginning to rain - the cranes were so low due to the clouds. We see them every year, twice a year - we seem to be on their flight path to the sun, and in fact, there is apparently an app you can get which charts their progress up and down France.
But that's too much for me, I always feel a little down when I see them: it's a long time before they come back.
