Hi Sandy,
I think you definitely need to record that as a "black swan event"! :-)

Hi All,
I visited Broughton Beach, aka Dittler's Beach, today . Two good birds tosee
out towards the Sea Scout Base: I found a juvenile Black-bellied Plover and
Matt Millenbach identified it. It is probably still there, just a little west
of the Sea Scout Base.
The Black Swan? a large black swan with red beak, extremely long neck with
white wing patches. Do I count this in eBird? I did see someone walk up quite
close, dog along, and all the bird did was move into the water.
