UK crane population recovers with breeding pairs at RSPB Lakenheath Fen
  • The RSPB Lakenheath Fen site in Suffolk has welcomed three breeding pairs of common cranes since 2007.
  • Last year, a record 37 chicks were born across the UK, contributing to a total population of about 250 cranes.
  • Despite these successes, cranes remain at risk due to climate change impacting their wetland habitats.
