**MEGA** Pacific Swift

15/06/2013 Trimley Marshes SWT. As soon as I saw the Mega Alert on my pager I knew I had to at least try and get to see this bird as I had missed the Cley bird in 1993. I knew the journey would take at least 2 hours and then there was a three mile walk to where the bird was being seen. I did not expect it to still be there when we arrived. In fact when we were about 15 miles away we received news that it had flown off south over the River Orwell. We continued the journey and luckily it came back and we saw it. We also saw the Trooping of the Colour flypast as we were travelling up the A 12.
