WTF!!!!When I had got my breath back and looked again to make sure I wasn't hallucinating, I ran like hell to the nearest birder's house to get him and get the news out. With dog-walkers a major feature at the site we needed lots of birders to cordon off the bay so the stick-throwing brigade didn't flush the bird.It stayed all weekend - what a cracker!John</blockquote>
