My mate was at Priors Fen on saturday morning and reported at 10:20am that the Dotterel couldn't be found. I met him at Titchwell later that day and decided to try for it on the way back home. I reported it at 16:10 that it still wasn't present. In fact a report was in today that the Dotterel was still missing.

Thankfully I have had a few lapland Bunting this year. I was watching about 9 of them at the start of the year in North Norfolk.
