I believe that the combination of tail length and narrowness would be a difficult profile to find on CB? Also I've lightened the last image to show an ''apparant'' bar to the tail base, however this could easily be dismissed as a ''coincidental artefact?'' I believe on the day birds turned up on Scilly and Kent, as I've been informed.Cheers</blockquote>
