The story

During the Second World War, Jimmy Bancroft, a fighter pilot just released from hospital and his nurse (now his girlfriend) Hazel Broome are on a walking tour through the countryside. They arrive at the (fictional) village of Lipsbury Lea, being keen birdwatchers, discover that a pair of tawny pipits, which are rarely seen in England, are nesting nearby. News of the rare discovery spreads and groups of twitchers arrive from the cities to try to see the birds.
