The bird is still present for those who may be interested.

Lorna Mee and I waited patiently for two hours today (1100 to 1300) for a 
combined group of Bar-tailed and Black-tailed Godwits to "raise your wings and 
stretch please" without any sight of the bird (Lorna was there when I arrived 
and may have invested much more time).
Then at 1300 approx. it flew in solo to join the group from a southerly  
direction showing the underwing brilliantly when landing.

NE corner of the lake and today a mixed flock of approx. 25 Godwits (sorry 
didn't take a precise count)
