Eurasian Bullfinch

This morning around the Exminster Marshes vicinity I saw 11 European Golden Plover , 4 Little Ringed Plover , 2 Winter Wren , 4 Common Chiffchaff , a male Eurasian Bullfinch and 2 male Reed Bunting . I then went to the Powderham Church area where the 2 Cattle Egret were still showing in the sheep field along with 4 Little Egret , my next stop was at the railway crossing at Cockwood where a look at the Exe Estuary got me 5 male & 3 female Red-Breasted Merganser & 2 Slavonian Grebe that are now coming into summer plumage.
I then headed for home but I did stop and have a look at Bowling Green Marsh where the 1st winter Little Gull was still showing well and I also saw my 1st Red Admiral Butterfly of the year .
