An overcast start this morning but it brightened up when I found my first Mediterranean Gull of the year, off the the beach at the warren. But that was pretty much it for the day, the warren held no outstanding birds.

I decided to move on so I went to Bowling Green Marshes, a RSPB reserve in Topsham. I was surprised that there was so many people in the hide. I scanned the shore line and found Teal and Wigeon and a Greylag Goose all feeding. Someone said they spotted the Green Winged Teal, I had a look but it looked just like a normal one! There were however 40+ Blackwits feeding in the waterlogged grass, apparently there are only 30 breeding pairs in the UK. Nice bird.
