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

The first time I saw a glimpse of a #WaterRail along #ShuttertonBrook #Dawlish #Devon I was so excited even if I could hardly see it. Today I found 3 down there, no chance of a photo of the first 2 but this one was right out in the open! Although I kept my distance

Rallus Aquaticus or Waterrail in good English, an extremely shy bird that will show it self only when there are no people... So... I’m not there 😜
