Thursday 15th November

Due to the significant erosion by storms at Dawlish Warren NNR, Teignbridge District Council (TDC) is advising extreme caution when visiting. The dune path between groyne 10 – 18 is unsafe and a section of this path is completely closed with no access. Access to Warren Point is possible via the beach with the risk of being cut off for a period either side of each high tide.  Access to the bird hide is only via Warren Point. The only public access, up and back down, to these areas is therefore along the beach at lower states of tide.  Contact TDC for questions about access.

Vis mig unlike other sites was limited to 55 Redwing and a single Chaffinch overhead, with six Goldcrest and five Chiffchaff in the bushes. Counts from the estuary included 630 Dunlin, 410 Wigeon, 350 Teal, 170 Dark-bellied Brent Geese, 27 Ringed Plover, 10 Turnstone and the Slavonian Grebe.
