Axe Estuary

The 18 Glossy Ibis that flew north east at c07:25 were next seen at Dungeness, Kent at 3pm (per Birdguides). That's an incredible journey! And similar to what the six did last year (although they stopped off at a couple of places en-route).

This cream-crowned Marsh Harrier spent half an hour over Axe and Colyford Marshes this morning before being chased off north by Crows.


At Black Hole Marsh at 08:30: 6 Dunlin, 3 Snipe, 2 Little Stint, 1 Curlew Sandpiper, 1 Knot and 1 Greenshank with a Barn Owl showing until 08:40.


Also a Hobby over Lower Bruckland Ponds.

No sign of Corn Bunting today at Beer Head.

Also, from Dave Helliar: Wryneck still present Waggs Plot at 15:30.
