They are gathering and preparing for the trip south again. 
I think they will leave early as the waterlevel is still too low.

Lots of cranes are gathering now. They seem to thrive in Sweden nowadays. 15 years ago I rarely seen any. Now they are common. Probably because there are more wetland now. I wish I had the sound for the last shot. :)  You can´t miss a crane. You hear them.

Seem to have been a great year for thehGrey Heron. On the image is two adults and one young. But I saw at least 16 herons in the small lake. Almost seemed crowded. :)

Lined up!

Not much birds around lately. But this day I heard some noise I could not recognise. Until I realised it came from above. Lots of cranes on the move south in the air. Second shot are mallards and Canada geese lined up on the jetty.
