There was as much clicking of the cameras on the second day as there was on the first! We started off with the very elegant whooper swans set against a spectacular backdrop, followed by a quick stop off at a smaller crane sanctuary, where the owner, an elderly lady has (now famously) been feeding the cranes for over fifty years!  That is a great personal effort, and one which has certainly helped this rare species bounce back from the brink of extinction.  We moved on through the marsh lands, and spent some time looking for and photographing Sika deer.  Ending off another great day, was another crane sunset shoot, which delivered big time.

Major sightings of the day:

• Many whooper swans
• Many Japanese red crowned cranes
• Sika deer
• Red foxes
• White-tailed eagle
