First thing this morning I had a Firecrest in my back garden a bird that I have only had once before in the garden . I then went across to the Exminster Marshes to look for a Glossy Ibis that was found yesterday and it was still on show today but was a little bit to distant to get nice shots of it .
Also seen were 3 Common Snipe , a Jack Snipe a bird that is always illusive on the marshes , 5 Meadow Pipit and 2 Cetti`s Warbler .

Mandarin and Mottled Umber
An early morning look at Bowling Green Marsh got me a male Mandarin a very uncommon bird on the marsh . The bird was on the far left hand side of the marsh under the railway lines but I just about got this distant shot of it from the hide .
Also seen were numerous Common Teal and northern Shoveler , around 20+ Northern Pintail , 3 male and a female Gadwall , 4 Pied Avocet , a male Peregrine Falcon , a Grey Wagtail and a Common Raven .
Last night I caught just one moth this Mottled Umber and was well pleased as it is a new one for me .
