Hi Suzanne, the full list of sightings did show gaps where it wasn't seen in some summers so probs been away to breed before.

Had a great colour-ringed Oystercatcher sighting result yesterday. It was ringed in Devon, 2019 as an 8 yr old bird. Resighted some 50 times over the next 6 and a half years, always within 1km....until yesterday! #lincsbirding #ukbirding #waders #birdringing

A message in the Grantham Birders WhatsApp group saying 18 Whooper Swan were 10 miles away meant a car trip to see if I could connect, they were still there, nice! Thanks Steve! @lincsbirding.bsky.social @lincswildlife.bsky.social

I hasten to add I picked it out the hedge, emptied it and put it in recycling.

Thought I was going to be the only birder in Britain to not see any White-fronted Geese this winter but found 13 at Woodhall airfield today. Always a good inland count of Redshank here-86 today. @lincswildlife.bsky.social #lincsbirding
