Water Pipit

This morning there were two GREEN SANDPIPER on the pools at Matford on the edge of Exeter , & a look at the Exminster Marshes then got me 40+ WIGEON , 20+ TEAL & a male & female SHOVELER on the main pool , & seen also were 2 CETTI`S WARBLER , 2 CHIFFCHAFF & this superb looking summer plumaged WATER PIPIT , the conditions for getting a good shot of this bird was made very hard by the very high winds !
