Dolphins

No sign of the Eiders off Teignmouth first thing this morning, but 3-4 Common Dolphins were moving south not far off the end of the pier and clearly visible without binoculars, much to the delight of passers-by. There seem to be reasonable numbers in Babbacombe Bay this winter, and I recorded 12-15 hunting just north of Hope's Nose a fortnight ago.

Just outside the patch, a couple of walks to the north of Bishopsteignton over the past two weekends have produced up to 50 Skylarks, 20 Cirl Buntings and a handful of Yellowhammers in fields near Red Rock Brewery, along with the odd Fieldfare, Stonechat and Kestrel. Meanwhile a male Blackcap has been a regular visitor to my garden in Kingsteignton.
