Today is my birthday ! so like I always do on it off I went birding for the day .
With the first stop down at Prawle Point where there was a Radde`s Warbler seen yesterday .
I got there just after first light & was there for about a hour & a half but never saw the Radde`s & the only birds I saw were 2 GREAT SPOTTED WOODPECKER , 2 CHIFFCHAFF & a TAWNY OWL .
So off I went to Start Point ! I parked the car up & walked back to the farm where I saw a YELLOW BROWED WARBER in the trees by the road , I then walked down to the lighthouse & had a look in the garden where there was a FIRECREST , 6 CHIFFCHAFF & a Female MERLIN that flew around the headland .
The next stop was at Slapton Ley & at the Torcross end there were 10 Female &
4 Male RUDDY DUCK .
I then went to the Clennon Valley Country Park at Goodrington & got good views of another YELLOW BROWED WARBLER , but then rain stopped play so it was off home to watch the England/Austria game on the tv.
