Today I went down to Otterton to see if the VELVET SCOTER that was found over the weekend would still be there & my luck was in & the bird showed quite well but distant from the top of the cliffs by the sewage works , giving me the opportunity to get a photo of this species for the first time ( I know the last photo is very distant but it shows the white in the wings very well )
Also seen were 2 SHAG , 3 COMMON STONECHAT & 2 RAVEN were heard calling .
