One that got away?

Marek called to say he had a small duck that looked like a Garganey at Sandford, but wouldn't put it's head up, then as we spoke it did and he confirmed it right then. I was there quickly, but it had swam out of view and lost among the islands of Sandford.

Trevor, myself and Marek searched without success, so we all headed off in different directions to check other lakes. I'd just got to Lea Farm GP when Trevor called saying it was still on Sandford, but by the time I got back it was missing again.

I tried the hide once more, but it never came out. Meanwhile Marek and Trevor both caught up with the Stonechat and I had to leave.

Fingers crossed it will be still present tomorrow early morning.
