Welcome
You have found us. We are a secret group of crack birders who have turned our backs on the machismo, corruption, and backstabbing greed that constitute today's birding scene, and have united together to follow the True Path of non-competitive, collaborative and generally lovely birding-as-meditation-and-spiritual-growth. Consequently, we never see anything. Birds that land right in front of our noses, and which we can identify with our observer book, are written about here. Oh, and they have to be seen in - or from - the parish of Winterton-on-Sea, Norfolk, or on the walk round past East Somerton Church ruins and up the concrete track to Winterton Holmes (because it's a nice walk which we all do).

put it out or suppress it
not next day
Who saw it, how well and at what time?
Was also present at Winterton in late July http://www.gybc.org.uk/year/recent.html
There is rumoured to be a lot of b......t being spread by collective members regarding the frequency of sightings of this bird over the intervening period since the 28th July, if it exists. 'It was there' type of statements supported by no detail give the claims no credibility at all.
We have never claimed to be credible. We are the incredibles! This bird was seen by one collective member and his friend. This website allows a small group of people who live in the parish to publish their individual records, and I can tell you that even the others in our little band were unhappily not contacted regarding this bird. Luckily I was in Asia at the time so it doesn't really matter for me, but I quite agree with the first comment in this thread and will be telling Tim myself next time I see him!
