The Exe Estuary

A look around the Exe Estuary this morning started at Darts Farm in Topsham where I saw 3 Great Cormorant and a Green Sandpiper . I then went over to the other side of the Estuary and walked up from Powderham corner to Turf Locks and I saw 1000+ Brent Geese , a female Red-Breasted Merganser , a Little Grebe , 300+ Eurasian Oystercatcher , 200+ Black-Tailed Godwit , 2 Meadow Pipit and 4 Common Stonechat … my first of the year .
