Common Sandpiper, Black Hole Marsh, Seaton, Devon. Not sure if this bird appeared in the recent episode of #BBC #Countryfile but, in any case, it was the first one I'd seen in the UK this year.

Later last evening, I did a #Nightjar survey and once the work was completed I thought I'd try out the video function of my thermal imager. What do you think?

Thanks to friend whose early info. helped save me a wasted journey to Somerset....I ended up at Bowling Green Marsh #Exeter where this Great Egret was nearly the most 'exciting' bird of the morning. A Firecrest in the lane outside was better though. The Egret caught four fish whilst I watched it.
2/2 ...and here's the adult male - he stopped off on the way in to eat before sharing with the young.

1/2 I re-visited the Kestrel family today; great views of first the adult female coming in with a feed, and then a few moments later, the adult male. Big change in the look of the young!

Here's the visit by the female:
Grasshopper Warbler reeling (just like it says in the books ) in #Devon earlier this evening.
Thanks to a tip off from a local birder, I had tremendous views of a Grasshopper Warbler earlier this evening in #Devon
Watched it for 30 minutes plus as it reeled from various perches.
