A morning on the east side of the River Exe, starting in the Maer Valley just outside 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).

A pair of black swans at Exeter quay, mingling with a group of mute swans.

The river Exe very high after all the rain in the last week or so. The flood relief channel doing its thing though - it’s very full. You can normally walk across it, underneath the footbridge.

Bowling Green Marsh reserve () is on the river Clyst as it joins the river Exe and this morning there were plenty of Black-tailed Godwit, , Redshank, Pintail, Wigeon, Teal, Shoveler, Lapwing. There was one Spotted Redshank which took some finding! Along the lane, my first Mistle Thrush of the year.

Spooked Avocet.

An 'interesting' day. Helped someone who had driven along the wrong carriageway on the A38 (a dual carriageway main road linking Exeter and Plymouth), made sure she was safe until the Police arrived (then had to give a statement).

Then it was very windy on the Exe estuary so ended my birding early and came home for a cup of tea in the warm.

Avocet on the Exe. Beautiful, elegant, graceful birds.

I walk around Exminster Marshes to blow away the cobwebs. Plenty of birdlife and lovely to get out and about.

In the morning, the weather had been pretty lousy with heavy intermittent showers. However, it had started to clear from about midday and so as we reached the and then the the weak had made an appearance. No breeze to speak of either, which made for quite a speedy ride.

I roamed around the east side of the River Exe this morning before ending up at Bowling Green Marsh. Highlights were Brent Goose, Marsh Harrier, 6 Snipe and a Firecrest. Beautiful blue sky.

1 Oystercatcher.

@mastobikes@gup.pe Here is the over which the excess water from the is flowing.

The footbridge is usually redundant and you can just walk across the channel but not today. The seem to like it, though.
