The Teigngrace pools again proved worth a look this morning with a Little Ringed Plover, two Green Sandpipers, two White Wagtails and eight Teal still. The area can be viewed from the cleared ground adjacent to the hospital access road (telescope needed). At the adjacent Jetty Marsh a Water Rail was calling, a Grey Heron dropped in and a Roe Deer was flushed.
Elsewhere a short seawatch from Teignmouth from 06:30 - 07:00 was unsurprisingly quiet given the relative lack of wind but did produce four Common Scoters, two Red-throated Divers, a Great Crested Grebe and half a dozen Guillemots. Other bits and pieces this morning included six Fieldfares on the racecourse, c.10 Sand Martins at Rackerhayes and two Mandarins which flew upriver at Passage House.
