I looked back at an earlier report of this bird from the same person. In that report the location was "by yellow gate into fish hatchery opposite boat launch." Using the "Bird's eye view" on Bing Maps (http://binged.it/1E5iDJx might show it) there is a wide grassy path opposite the boat ramp that is blocked by a gate; the photo does not let me see the color of the gate but I presume it it yellow.

Thanks, Roy. I met Mikki (sp?) there yesterday, and we were searching the right area, but with no luck. I am hoping for a life bird during a short holiday visit with my wife's family in Essex, so will try a couple more times. Thanks to everyone who has posted.
