An early morning look at the Exminster Marshes for a Little Ringed Plover as I have done all last week again got me nothing but a male PEREGRINE FALCON & 2 male REED BUNTING , so off I went to Dawlish Warren in hope that my luck would change !
And I was in luck with 10 SANDWICH TERN & 6 male & 1 female WHEATEAR my first of the year , also seen were 20+ DUNLIN , 6 KNOT , 3 GREY PLOVER , 1 SANDERLING & a male SPARROWHAWK .
The ( Warren ) Sand Crocus were on show today & also seen was a young Common Lizard & a Small White Butterfly .
On the drive home I stopped & looked at the Fallow Deer in the Powderham Estate & on the main pool was a CATTLE EGRET .
