I have just updated the previous blog entry with the following image, taken by Geoff Doré and e-mailed across last night, but as I know that won’t help the “followers” of the blog I am adding in a second post, with picture, here…

Yep, the real McCoy! Nice one.
Just to let you know that this bird landed on the road in front of us near Kingston, just south of Ringwood. Monday 7th July, around 10am. Clearly confused, it walked around long enough for us to get a good view – no pics – then flew off into a tree.
Great spot – thanks for letting us know. They are very secretive birds so could well be in the valley somewhere yet!
