Penduline Tit

This morning I went down to Dawlish Warren to look for the SPOONBILL that has been there a couple of days & I found the bird asleep on finger point but after a while a put its head out & I was able to get this shot of it , on the sea there was 2 SLAVONIAN GREBE , 6 RED THROATED DIVER , the female SURF SCOTER , a male VELVET SCOTER & a female COMMON SCOTER & on the walk back to the car I saw a GREEN WOODPECKER & 4 BULLFINCH .
News then broke of a PENDULINE TIT at the Clennon Valley in Goodrington so I met up with Andy Bond & off we went for it , we arrived just as it started raining but still got good views of the bird but the light was not to good for photographs , we then went to Broadsands for a quick look & saw a BLACK-NECKED GREBE , 5 CIRL BUNTING & a REED BUNTING
