A trip to the seaside this afternoon and a visit to Lyme Regis, not a birding excursion today though I was lucky enough to pick up a couple of year ticks! On arrival a walk upstream along the River Lim for about half a mile finally got me some cracking views of a Dipper and a Grey Wagtail before returning to the seafront and a walk along the promenade and out to the end of The Cobb. From here three Purple Sandpipers were feeding on the rocks and showed really well in the afternoon sunshine and several Rock Pipits were milling about. Back then to the beach for a well deserved portion of chips before heading back home after a lovely couple of hours out with the family.
Year list for 2014 now at 111 species.
