Cirl Bunting
This morning I went to a new location for me the Ridgetop Park that is at the top of Exminster and I got what I was looking for Cirl Bunting .
Then a look at the Exminster Marshes got me 4 Greater White-Fronted Geese , Eurasian Sparrowhawk , a Male and female Common Stonechat , 5 Common Skylark and a Common Raven .

An hour spent in the hide at Bowling Green Marsh got me 5 European Spoonbill , a Little Egret , a male and female Common Pochard , around a dozen Tufted Duck , a Common Kestrel and a Stock Dove .
Just glad to be able to get out a bit again after a bit of bad health 😀

CORNWALL
A trip down to Cornwall today in hope of catching up with the 1st winter Ross`s Gull that has been seen around Newlyn Harbour and we got nice views of the bird but I could only manage to get this quick shot of it as it shot past . This was my sixth different Ross`s Gull seen in Britain and I can never get enough of these smart little birds .
We then went to Marazion and picked up Greater Scaup and Sanderling for the year . On then to Helston where we saw a pair of Lesser Scaup that were practically under our feet !
Our last stop of the day was at Truro where the long staying Lesser Yellowlegs was showing right beside Tesco`s car park in a small channel .
