I'll have to check my records, but the 16 Sept 2001 Freiston record could well relate to a 'possible' I had.... Looking over the lagoon with bins only - I saw what I thought was a buff-breast it was distant, so I marched around to get a closer look, but I was unable to relocate it! Therefore it was only a possible and I have not submitted a description to LBC. I'm not aware of any other records at Freiston since 2000. Cheers, JB |
