Yellow-Browed Warbler

An early morning look at Bowling Green Marsh this morning got me the 1st winter male Long-Tailed Duck , 2 male and a female Pochard , 3 male and a female Pintail & a Cetti`s Warbler .
Later in the day Andy Bond and myself went to the Clennon Valley C P in Torbay and after a bit of a wait we saw the wintering Yellow-Browed Warbler it was just in view for a few minutes & then gone again , typical YBW , also seen were 2 Siberian Chiffchaff , a Blackcap & 3 Stock Dove & on the ponds were a few Shoveler & Tufted Duck , on then to some fields near Yelverton where I had a very quick view of a Cattle Egret as we were walking up the road next to the field where it has been seen before and all of a sudden off it flew from the other side of the hedge right beside the road and after much looking we couldn`t find it again .
