It was a great news to hear: Purple Sandpiper on the ´Hungarian Sea´! We have been looking for this bird for many many years in this area and finally Ádám Faragó, Szabolcs Gál and Béla Kancsal found one! Fantastic and congratulations! Thanks for this great birds and here is a few pics taken by me on the first day (it stayed only for two days). The location was Balatongyörök, Lake Balaton
