    About ten years ago, i looked out of my front window and saw one of these hiding in my garden. I had never seen or even heard of them, but through the years i often wondered what it was until today. I saw one on a TH-cam video about endangered Canadian animals. It said none had been seen in 55 years, but i am here to tell you i saw one. I researched for a long time trying to identify it and today i finally know what it was. So i live in Virginia! I know what i saw and it was a Curlew. I know it was. I hope they are still around. It was very shy and tried to hide in my garden. It must have been lost, but it was definitely a Curlew. So at least i know they were still around ten years ago.

    I nearly got caught out in morcambe bay. You dont see the gullies till its to late and the quick sand!!. It took me 40 minutes to get back to dry solid ground. Terrifying!. When your out there, there is no sound and even if you shouted it would be dampened by the bay. Ive seen the sea come in once with waves as high as ten foot traveling as fast as a car with the wind behined it. The sound is a massive Rush of sound. You have to respect the sea especially in morcambe bay.

      Agreed. I suspect he was exaggerating, but he was making the point that it travels faster at the sides and cuts you off, plus he mentioned that the effects of wind can speed it up. I believe the Arnside Bore more typically travels at around ten mph.
