[QUOTE="Euan Buchan, post: 3468362, member: 1076"] Thought this will be interesting which bird always gives you the slip that you go Twitching for? For me it's The Mandarin Duck, I've never seen one at the beginning of the year reports said it had been spotted at Figgate Park in Portobello I went there stayed for a hour with no luck. Yesterday I heard it had been spotted at Blackford Pond I had seen on Twitter & Facebook people's photo of it so yesterday morning I went there it wasn't ideal weather as it was wet but anyhoo I stayed for a hour and a half with no luck Iam going back today but at the moment that's why it's known as 'The Bird That Got Away' for me one day I will see it.
