Hi Josephine
I know little about LFBs, except occasional TV shows, but it sure sounds like a record.
Suggest you talk to local bird people, to record it officially somehow, somewhere (more formal than this forum, I mean - something in typed/published form).
If all else fails, try your National Parks or Dept of Environment.
