Was it possibly a Temminck's, or are we talking possibly something a whole lot rarer? |

It was too far away with only binoculars to see whether it was Temmincks, Little or what. I was hoping someone else (with a scope) might have seen it.It was on the far left pool. Some birders who were leaving as I arrived had seen a Wood Sand and a Hobby neither of which appeared for me. Ian |
