17.01.09



I have been really patient over the last couple of days, not being able to get down to Paignton for the Penduline Tit, but it was worth it. I had a few hours out this afternoon and headed that way.

The bird showed really well for about 10 minutes. It was very active, feeding off the reeds. But then vanished, I hung around for another 10 mins but it never showed again so I went to Broadsands.

By the time I got down there the wind had really picked up. I found a seat over looking the bay and started to pick up birds on the sea. Lots of gulls and a very distant Black Neck Grebe. There was a raft of Eider with a Velvet Scoter tagging along.
