Short Stint for a Temmincks

I had a quick look at Swinemoor last night-I say quick because it would have been longer if my camera battery didn't run out.
Despite the impending rainfall I decided to give it a go, straight away the resident wood sandpiper popped in front of my lens, then a redshank and a little ringed plover also a white wagtail but no Temmincks!
Then it appeared for a short while before scooting off amongst the grassy tufts in the shallow water.
Nice bird but views all to fleeting.
Went back this morning but no sign of any other waders apart from beligerent lapwings chasing everything off.
