Birdwatching - Life on the Torridge Estuary

Local walks and beaches have been inundated so enjoyed a brief trip to the burrows now the official Summer season is over.

An incoming tide, golden light and fresh air. As is normally the case had the wrong lens so record shots only of what we spotted. Three #Cormorant, each sitting on their own rock spot, four #Egret, several gulls and a flock of #Redshank swirling over the Skern. Are they making a stop on their migration or over-wintering here. Scroll down for video clip....where did they go !!

Another eventful weekend ahead at the popular Big Sheep Outdoor Safe Socially Distanced Arena at Abbotsham, Bideford which includes some 'Entertainingly Different' Family Entertainment on Saturday morning.

Feeling a little Soul-ful, the North Devon Outdoor Cinema will remedy that with their showing of 'The Blues Brothers' on Friday. Baa-lladium presents a change of genre and key from Blues to Folk with 'Fisherman's Friends headlining the stage on Saturday. There will be a 'Gathering of the Flock' on Sunday, a safe social get-together for worship, prayer and inspiration organised by local Christians for people not yet able to meet for services in church buildings and venues.
