DEVON BIRD NEWS has moved...find it HERE

Plym estuary, Plymouth.

The Spotted Sandpiper showing well today at high tide from the "hide". This bird has gained a few more spots on the undertail coverts since I last had a decent view of it. We're hoping it will dress itself for summer before it departs!
Not a lot else here just four Greenshank, two Common Sandpipers, a few Pied Wags and Linnets and one each of Peregrine and Sparrowhawk overhead.

Yesterday at Devils Point were two adult Med. Gulls, a Razorbill and a Redwing. The Redwing was my first here apart from last winters cold spell influx.
