A trip to Newton Abbot hospital on Saturday afternoon was tied in with a rare visit to the adjacent northern fringes of Jetty Marsh. Four Teal, two Chiffchaffs, two Stonechats, a Grey Wagtail and a Jay were noted, with 22 Mute Swans and 28 Canada Geese present in nearby Teigngrace fields.
This morning's very high tide pushed almost everything off Passage House but eight Avocets and 16 Redshanks were clinging on, and one of the Little Grebes has developed breeding plumage already. Two Lapwings and two Stonechats continue to winter on the racecourse.
