Spring is getting closer, increasing the chances to catch nice birds in a clear sky.

This topic is now open to share your pictorial sightings. Good luck!

The first few days in March probably had more sunshine than the weeks before combined :D .
So here we go with some aircraft which were here in early March. Unfortunately I missed the Kuwaiti Government Airbus that came to Hannover today :x

Looks like the were some nice cargo planes among the usual traffic...
