"Like a crane on steroids"

I have joined some odd groups on Facebook, but perhaps none as odd as the Great Bustard Group. This strange looking bird, described by the man that has recently reintroduced it to Britain as "like a crane on steroids", has just hatched chicks in this country for the first time in 177 years. I'm following the Facebook group in hope of seeing updated pics of the birds as they grow. I was also interested to read that the white-tailed eagles I was so privileged to see on Mull last year, were also once extinct from this country and only reintroduced in the 1970s. I wonder what will be next?
