As you do, when combining birding with shameless yeartick hunting.
Many sites, many yearticks, here's a flavour thereof;
Have you ever really
looked at a Dunlin?
Didn't see that one coming, did you?
Dunlin not a yeartick, but wandered up while I was trying and failing to see one. I was having lunch at the time, back to a rather frisky wind, but not so distracted to miss the chance of a half-decent picture.
[By my standards, at least]
Earlier...
Spot the yeartick

Spot the yeartick

Where's Wally, but with birds.

:D

[hardcore version]
Ambling about rural lanes and encountering some very big [~300, 300++, and 503 {that one counted as they streamed by overhead; it took a while!}] finch flocks of mostly Linnets, Chaffinches, and more Chaffinches respectively!
A few other species with them and another flyover Crossbill all added up to 9 finch species, which isn't bad [plus 2 buntings]
Easier to photo in a tree was this
Nuthatch
Getting back to the Exe
One or two Brent Geese
Wowzer...
And some assorted scenery,
A day of days, perhaps.
Ain't Devon Glorious?
Be Seeing You...
