Goshawk

A trip out to Stover Park this afternoon to look for woodland yearticks turned out to be a good move as I got 3 NUTHATCH , 2 MARSH TIT & a TREECREEPER , also seen was a female GREAT SPOTTED WOODPECKER , 10 COAL TIT , 4 SISKIN & a male BULLFINCH , but the best bird of the day was a GOSHAWK that flew over me just above tree leval heading towards Bovey Tracey ..... superb !
The next stop was at the Exminster Marshes where there was over a 100 BAR-TAILED GODWIT , 60+ GOLDEN PLOVER & 6 COMMON SNIPE
