Hopes of 1987 storm repeat

Well they just aren't going to happen are they!
I don't wish to keep bringing up the hurts of days gone by, but we have never had another Sabine's Gull or Grey Phalarope since the day after the big storm. But I remain hopeful as ever one of the two species might show up again one day. It wouldn't be right to complain after such an amazing year anyway.
Today just a brief visit to the sailing club and car park field, BSL had 17 Pochard so nearly double recent numbers, in car park field just 1 Blackcap called, 4 Skylark over and 3 Swallow SE, 6 Redwing, 1-2 Siskin, 4-5 Chaffinch and 1 Chiffchaff.
