Long-Tailed Duck

In between the heavy downpours this morning I went for a look at Bowling Green Marsh in Topsham but there was not a lot to be seen , but the the long staying 1st winter male Long-Tailed Duck showed quite well in the channel in front of the hide , & out on the main water there were 2 Little Grebe , an adult male , a 1st winter male & a female Pochard . a male Pintail & a male and female Red-Breasted Merganser .
There were hardly any waders on the marsh today but in with a few Common Redshank was a nice adult winter Spotted Redshank & over in the reed bed a Cetti`s Warbler was calling !
