LUCKY & NOT SO LUCKY

Today I had a GREEN WOODPECKER fly across the road near Abbotskerswell , I then had a phone call telling me that there was a WHITE STORK on the Clyst Marshes .
So I got there as fast as I could , the lucky part was that it was still there & I got good views of it , the unlucky part was that I went back to the site with my camera later but the bird had flown off towards Exeter .
In the afternoon I went down to Bowling Green Marsh in Topsham & saw about 200+ SAND MARTIN , 2 SWALLOW , 9 LITTLE EGRET & 2 LITTLE GREBE .
