  1. Peregrine eating its fresh kill - the prey was probably a Lapwing. The fastest animal on the planet sees off 2 Carrion Crow, finishes its Sunday lunch and then flies off. #Nature #Wildlife #BowlingGreenMarsh #Peregrine #UKBirding #Birds #Devon #Exeter #BirdsOfMastodon

  6. A visit to Bowling Green Marsh just after High Tide this morning; highlights were 150+ Avocet, Ruff, Spotted Redshank & Greater Scaup.

    I couldn’t find the LB Dowitcher (incompetence?) nor take any photos or video (all my batteries were flat)(more incompetence!). #ukbirding #birds #birding #wildlife #nature #Topsham #Exeter #Devon #BowlingGreenMarsh

  8. A pleasant couple of hours spent in Bowling Green Marsh Hide, the air was still and the full sound of Redshank, Black-tailed Godwit and Wigeon could be heard. Three Spotted Redshank, one Ruff and this Marsh Harrier were the highlights.

  11. An high tide visit to Bowling Green Marsh earlier this evening & lots of waders on show.

    Can you spot the Curlew Sandpiper amongst the Redshank, Little Egret and Spoonbill? Also on the Marsh a Spotted Redshank so, all in all, good birding.

  12. I met up with a couple of friends for some high tide birding at Bowling Green Marsh reserve (and then some lunch). It was fairly quiet with high water levels (the RSPB seem to be having trouble fixing some sluice gates) but these two immature Spoonbill flew in to roost.

  14. Surprisingly, I was the only person in the hide over high tide at Bowling Green Marsh this morning. It was sooooo peaceful. Thirty-three species of birds including two Spoonbill and a Spotted Redshank.

  20. A morning on the east side of the River Exe, starting in the Maer Valley just outside #Exmouth where there is a small colony of Ring-necked Duck. Then onto Bowling Green Marsh for the high tide. The latter was quiet - both in terms of waders (hardly any) and peace and quiet (lots).

  21. Sunday morning and a pleasant couple of hours at Bowling Green Marsh reserve before the rains came. Highlights were a Ruff and a Spotted Redshank (so it was all about red legs!) amongst the hundreds of Black-tailed Godwit and Avocet. Good for the souls and good for the mind.

  22. I have had a fantastic day around the Exe and up on the East Devon commons.

    So many wildlife highlights but the crisp, winter weather and the fresh air made all seem good in the world (even though it's not obviously). Ever been walking in woods and feel you're being watched? #Devon #Birding #Wildlife #UKBirding #WaterRail #DartfordWarbler #RoeDeer #BowlingGreenMarsh
