WeBS, Osprey

On the estuary yesterday morning were 10 Curlew, eight Oystercatchers, 68 Canada Geese, 55 Mute Swans, 25 Shelducks, eight Mallards, six Little Egrets, 11 Cormorants and one Shag. Later an Osprey flew east over Kingsteignton at 5.50pm; sightings are unusual in June, and are perhaps linked to wandering birds from the Rutland and/or Poole Harbour translocated populations.
