The Usual Suspects

It was raining this morning . So I went down to the hide at my local patch , Bowling Green Marsh in Topsham for a look but I only saw the usual birds for this time of year with 100+ Northern Pintail , 50+ Northern Shoveler , 50+ Eurasian Wigeon , 15 Common Teal , 4 male and 2 female Tufted Duck & a single Little Grebe .
Waders were showing in abundance with numerous Black-Tailed Godwit , over 60 Bar-Tailed Godwit , 200+ Pied Avocet , 100+ Northern Lapwing , 1000+ Dunlin & 5 Common Snipe , other birds on the marsh today included a European Green Woodpecker & a Stock Dove .
