Before the snow set in today I had a look for the BLACK BRANT that has been seen around the Exe Estuary & found it in the fields Near the Turf Hotel in with a flock of 100 + ( Dark Bellied ) BRENT GOOSE , also seen was a male & female RED-BREASTED MERGANSER , 100+ DUNLIN , 2 GREY PLOVER & 3 AVOCET , & on the Exminster Marshes there was a large flock of WIGEON , 2 male & a female PINTAIL & a few SHOVELER .
I then drove around to Powderham where there was 11 LITTLE EGRET , 3 CATTLE EGRET & a SPARROWHAWK .
