Common Sand Martin

A trip out to Yarner Wood on the edge of Dartmoor today to look for Lesser Spotted Woodpecker but alas none were seen or heard . But we did see a large mixed flock of Lesser Redpoll , we made it around 20-30 birds but others thought the flock was a lot larger than that , other good birds seen were 3 Eurasian Nuthatch , 3 male and 2 female Eurasian Siskin and a male Eurasian Bullfinch .
On our way back home 5 Bohemian Waxwing were still beside the main road at Heathfield , and later in the day I got my 1st migrant of the year a Common Sand Martin on Bowling Green Marsh in Topsham ....... ( Thanks Gary )
