Having escaped detection at the end of 2024, presumably the same Spotted Redshank is back for its fourth winter and today roosted at Flow Point during the morning high tide, although true to form it remained too distant for a photo. Five Ringed Plovers and a half a dozen Turnstones were on the sea wall and 25 Teal flew out of the saltmarsh.
Elsewhere Hackney Marshes and Passage House were pretty quiet in the freezing conditions but provided a few year ticks including Reed Bunting, Raven and Bullfinch. Farmland east of Bishopsteignton still held 15+ Cirl Buntings, c.100 Skylarks and a few Linnets and Meadow Pipits.
