Ring Ouzel at dawn.
Yellow-browed Warbler at first light - hurriedly moving through cliff-top scrub and thankfully quite vocal.
Ringed Plovers. I get the occasional fly-over on Orcombe but it's very unusual to get them on the deck.
Yellow-browed Warbler - Gore Lane. I'm assuming this is a second bird. Apparently the Maer carpark bird is still present today too.
Female Chaffinch.
