A trip down to the Otter Estuary at Budleigh Salterton this morning to look for a rare bird on the new marshes Bearded Reedling and we were lucky to see four of them in flight a few times but they never settled once out in the open .
There was also 3 Water Rail , 3 Meadow Pipit , 2 Reed Bunting , a Little Grebe and a calling Yellow-Browed Warbler .
Later in the day I got news of 5 Whooper Swan on the Exminster Marshes . A rare bird in this neck of the woods , so I shot off over to there in hope that they would still be showing . I had only just got there and had look through someone`s telescope at them when they flew off over the Exe Estuary ....... Jammy git or what 😀
