Up & out early again this morning , First stop the viewing platform on Bowling Green Marsh that overlooks the Clyst Estuary .
In luck this morning with 2 SPOONBILL on the near side of the Estuary but they both flew off out of sight .
On Bowling Green Marsh today there were 35 LITTLE EGRET & a COMMON SANDPIPER , but the sunshine was very bright making it hard to see much , so Matt Knot & I decided to go down to Orcombe Point Exmouth to do a seawatch , on arrival there were lot of GANNET & KITTIWAKE in close , & about 20+ SANDWICH TERN & 10 COMMON TERN .
We then had 2 GREAT SKUA then another 4 showed up & we had the 6 together chaseing the terns .
Other birds seen were as follows a juv LITTLE GULL & a 1st Summer MEDITERRANIAN GULL , 2 MANX SHEARWATER & about 10 COMMON SCOTER & 5 LITTLE EGRET in off the sea .
