Twice in recent weeks I’ve seen an uncommon bird species and haven’t had my camera with me - a flock of 12 Goosanders (uncommon round me, anyway) and a Red-legged partridge (ditto).
I should make a habit of carrying a camera more often.
Mind you, I also found a Firecrest but even though I had my camera, I didn’t try and photograph it because it was very actively flitting in the foliage of a Holly tree. I decided to enjoy watching it rather than try for a photo which I was most unlikely to get.

I try to enjoy what I’m seeing, too, Ken - even with a camera in hand sometimes.
