Fledgling Curlews

 
Chris stumbled across these young Curlews when he was out checking round one of his lambing fields.

 
They were very difficult to photograph as they run amazingly fast.  I don't think it will be long before they take flight.
 
We quite literally have hundreds of ground nesting birds sitting on eggs or rearing young in the pastures surrounding Pry House but they are notoriously difficult to spot so I consider myself very lucky to have seen these two today.
