A Quiet Day Today

This morning I went down to Exton for another look out over the Exe Estuary & saw the following !
8 GREENSHANK were feeding out on the mud along with 13 GREY PLOVER & 3 LITTLE EGRET , Then a lone WHIMBREL & a SANDWICH TERN flew up river & a YELLOW WAGTAIL flew over calling but I couldn`t see it , we then picked up the OSPREY again & watched it catch a fish & fly off towards the Haldon Forest again .
In a field next to the river there were the following Butterfly , 4 Clouded Yellow ,
& 2 Common Blue .
