Tawny Pipit

Jimmy Bancroft (Niall MacGinnis) and his nurse (now his girlfriend) Hazel Broome (Rosamund John) are on a walking tour through the countryside. They discover that a pair of tawny pipits, which are rarely seen in England, are nesting nearby. Unfortunately, the field where the nest is located is due to be ploughed up by order of the county's War Agricultural Executive Committee. A delegation to the Ministry of Agriculture in London fails to get the order rescinded.
