The first Mistle Thrush of the year was perhaps the first local post-breeding migrant or a bird from much further afield. Other arrivals included a female Black Redstart and a Wheatear on the Golf Course and an Osprey overhead before circling off Mudbank, Exmouth.
Elsewhere counts from the estuary included 155 Curlew, 67 Bar-tailed Godwit, 18 Turnstone, 13 Grey and eight Ringed Plover, 10 Shelduck, 10 Knot, three Teal and a Sandwich Tern with the Velvet Scoter still offshore.
