I paid my first visit of the year to Bundle Head this morning in the hope that the forecast mist and fog would produce some grounded migrants. Annoyingly though, the fog was all low level and didn't cover the headland.

Totals were 6
Blackcap, 15
Chiffchaff, 5
Goldcrest and a single singing
Willow Warbler, obviously a new arrival with it perched in a tree growing out the side of the cliff.

A scan of the sea with just bins produced very little in the way of numbers, with singles of
Great Crested Grebe,
Red-breasted Merganser,
Guillemot and
Razorbill. Two groups of
Oystercatcher totaling c30 birds flew in from the north and made their way into the Teign. I wonder how much exchange their is between the Exe and Teign?
