I've been keeping my eyes on this patch of flood water over the past few days. Today it was heaving with birds...
opposite Axmouth FC
There were 600+ Black-headed Gull, 40 Curlew, one Blackwit, three Ringed Plover, 50 Pied Wag, three Meadow Pipit and 80 Starling. Looks excellent for a Pec/Citrine Wag/Yank Gull. I'll keep looking...
Black Hole Marsh this morning gave singles of Greenshank, Green Sand, Curlew Sandpiper, six Dunlin, four Ringed Plover, and tonight a Barn Owl.

The Curlew Sand On the Estuary mid afternoon I could see seven Barwits, 12 Blackwits, one Knot, one Little Stint and overhead...the Osprey! I really thought he had gone, but must have just become less predictable!
conifer woods.....yuk! (though I must add, Scottish ones are much more inviting!)
I thought I'd end this post with a totally random photo! My least favourite birding habitat in the world...
