Pipits and Glossy Ibis

It was great to finally do a bit of birding today, even if it was only brief! The day started off well with 2 male Bullfinches on the garden fence; the first I've seen from the house since moving here last July. An early afternoon trip to Colyford Common yielded 7 or perhaps 8 Water Pipits along with 2 Rock Pipits. They weren't always in one group and alternated between East and West of the tramline so I probably missed a few others.




Bridge Marsh was very busy with birds including the long-staying Glossy Ibis:



Sorry about the quality of the pics. It was very dull today so ISO settings were pretty nasty!
