After the #CanadaTrip I've been catching up with some of the local wildlife on #Dartmoor and the #EastDevonCommons (1)

I managed just over an hour on the East Devon commons this morning; once the sun had broken through, it was a gorgeous way to spend some time. Green Woodpecker (my first of the year), Siskin and top views of Dartford Warbler.

the whistling of #wigeons is a winter highlight "Only about 200 pairs of wigeon breed in Britain, making it scarcer than the #firecrest, #Dartfordwarbler and #littleegret. But almost half a million birds arrive here in autumn from Iceland, Scandinavia and Arctic Russia to take advantage of our mild winter climate and plentiful food. As well as feeding in shallow water, wigeon also graze on land, plucking tender shoots of grass with their short, stubby bill. #nature

A chilly, rainy day out on the East Devon Commons. But worth every moment.

I have had a fantastic day around the Exe and up on the East Devon commons.
So many wildlife highlights but the crisp, winter weather and the fresh air made all seem good in the world (even though it's not obviously). Ever been walking in woods and feel you're being watched? #Devon #Birding #Wildlife #UKBirding #WaterRail #DartfordWarbler #RoeDeer #BowlingGreenMarsh
