Two others flushed from tracks as I walked and all I saw was them flocking off. This one was just a fluke. I was watching a bush with small birds in it, when out the corner of my eye I saw movement. I looked - and over the wire fence this bird was strutting along. I was able to follow along the fenceline and get more photos and it still did not fly off. Presume it is used to dog walkers and runners.
