Elusive Black stork
On Monday 28th July in the evening I travelled down to Banters Barn Boyton RSPB and parked up at 7.20pm and I saw Rene B and he told me the bird was in the dyke but there was a mile and a half walk to reack it, as I took the path to the seawall path turning right I later saw Matthew D who said it was still there but it was by the seaward side of the scrub and couldn't currently been seen from the seawall path. I joined 3 people but it was currently hidden by a bush along the near side. It spent the entire time here and when a chap walked down the public footpath by the gate and the trespassed onto the farmer's field he spotted and was taking pictures of the bird bathed in the golden glow of the evening light (I presume) this was incredibly frustrating as I wasn't going to trespass but later on as he left, at 9.08pm I saw the immature Black Stork fly down the dyke.
