Tarting About t'Exe Looking For Year Ticks


So the whole yearlisting thing involves a fair amount of frantic twitching scarcities - never mind actual rarities - when they pop up.

Double Duck Dipping vexed me mightily [though it seems that one is being chucked out for reasons I'm not entirely sure of..??] but I still ended up zipping over to Exminster twice after hard-to-see birds.
The first being from work, the second from up on t'Moor....


Right then, let's hit some moderately ok [giving due respect to lack of sunshine..] pictures of Things Assorted;


Guess hoo-t?

"That pun was despicable..."

Short-eared Owl. Gotcha.
:D

Twerk it baby, yeah!

Jack Snipe. Ditto.

Wait a minute, that's
not a gull...

Not a Kestrel, either!

Osprey. [Always keep an eye on what's casually flying overhead. Even when cooing over ridiculously showy Jack Snipes..!]


It was a pleasant change to actually see what I was looking for [eventually] with the odd bonus, too.
Also running into assorted of Devon's Finest [and Most Infamous ;) ].


Meanwhile, on The Patch [on account of still not being mended... :/ ]-



Will be in another post.



What?



Be Seeing You...
