Seeing things?

I have no idea if I'm posting this in the right place, so apologies in advance if not.

You know sometimes you see something but you can't quite believe it? Well late-ish this morning I was near the Fylde Coast, Lancashire, when at about 800' I spotted an aeroplane heading out across the Ribble estuary roughly south west towards Gt Orme Head.

At first I thought it was some sort of very light/micro but since I have looked it up I am certain it was in fact a Fieseler Fi 156 Storch in WW2 Luftwaffe markings.

Didn't know there were any in existence, let alone in UK airspace.
