Today I was out in my back garden hanging out some clothes when I noticed some CARRION CROW mobbing something ! so I nipped indoors & got my bins & to my amazement found out that it was a SHORT EARED OWL .
I called to another birder who lives a couple of doors away Tim Warfolk the artist & we watched it for about 5 minutes flying towards the Clyst Marshes & it was a garden tick for the both of us .
Later on I went down to Brixham & on the way I stopped of at Newton Abbot for another look at the SQUACCO HERON that was still in the same park as yesterday .
Once at Brixham I went out to Berry Head for a look but only saw a Female KESTREL , a RAVEN & a CHIFFCHAFF .
