But nobody has yet come on the scene to say they found it and why it wasn't published, and it ha been dark at least four hours before even you heard about the bird<br /><br />I have a pretty good idea whats going on here Pete....and so have you.Pete Woodruffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16039548314043002357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3003192502289547336.post-68528512180883638642012-03-08T22:38:41.531+00:002012-03-08T22:38:41.531+00:00RBA were phoned by me at circa 1015pm on Tuesday w...RBA were phoned by me at circa 1015pm on Tuesday with the news and the grid ref for the site established after RBA checked a map at their end. Didnt think anything more of it as didnt have time to check for the bird myself. I suggest you talk to RBA if there was a problem. I miss a few pager messages due to reception problems so just assume any lack of info is due to that <br /><br />PetePete Marshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09461363671751316069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3003192502289547336.post-37528162539315766512012-03-08T21:38:45.578+00:002012-03-08T21:38:45.578+00:00OK....So a re-read by me of Wednesdays RBA message...OK....So a re-read by me of Wednesdays RBA message has me to now realise it was for 'negative news' on the Dartford Warbler at Arnside.<br /><br />But if we're going to continue to discuss 'Getting The News Out' the issue is....how come it didn't when it was found, and when was it found? <br /><br />And by the way, I have no interest whatsoever in 'by who'.Pete Woodruffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16039548314043002357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3003192502289547336.post-91790123570548993832012-03-08T21:14:47.173+00:002012-03-08T21:14:47.173+00:00I'm even more confused than you now Pete.
Yo...I'm even more confused than you now Pete. <br /><br />You say you received news via a third party after dark on Tuesday of a Dartford Warbler earlier in the day. <br /><br />The mystery deepens....and you received feedback that the bird had been searched for on Tuesday too, obviously 24 hours before the news broke with RBA the following day (Wednesday).<br /><br />But - although not usually a topic of mine - the point I made in the post was related to 'Getting The News Out' and I'm sure everyone must be thinking in the case of this individual (Dartford Warbler) at Arnside which did'nt 'get out' until the following day according to your comments here....I wonder why?Pete Woodruffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16039548314043002357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3003192502289547336.post-30161608079411774232012-03-07T23:06:15.313+00:002012-03-07T23:06:15.313+00:00Confused by your posting, Pete.

A grid ref was worked out courtesy of RBA and I posted it on the LDBWS site straight away (as you can see). The two locations I have been in since I told RBA are neither very good for pager message reception and I assumed lack of any mention = message missed due to reception. All the feedback I have received today is that the bird was searched for at yesterday's site at Park Point and not seen. Is this belated report today from nearby Arnside Point??? PS your anti-robot letters are completely illegible so this probably worn work!Pete Marshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09461363671751316069noreply@blogger.com
