Thurlestone Bay

After the finding of the second LITTLE BUNTING in 9 days incredibly Vic T and Nick T had a low flying LAPLAND BUNTING over the cafe at South Huish Marsh, with one of the few spring CIRL BUNTING last week March will certainly be remembered for a long time.

In the Bay - 4 SANDWICH TERN, 2 RAZORBILL, 1m 2f PINTAIL rested on the sea, 6 SAND MARTIN.

A Tristis type CHIFFCHAFF at the sewage works .

30+ SNIPE on S H Marsh with a WHEATEAR in the field by the Cafe.

Mallards Lane - 4 CHIFFCHAFF, 1 WILLOW WARBLER, 1f BLACKCAP

And it is still only 28 March - hopefully some more surprises to come
