A morning on Exminster Marsh

I spent two or so hours on Exminster Marsh this morning. Birds were numerous and various. I heard Chiffchaffs singing loudly and my first Willow Warbler song of the year. The most interesting birds for me was the first sing Sedge Warblers of the year. it was so hard to catch even a glimpse of one though they were singing from the reeds just feet from me. I stood statuesque in the hope that I would be able to photogrph one but it didn't work. I did however, photograph Willow Warblers and why wouldn't you be happy with that. Also on the marsh were several Wheatears, believed to be of the Greenland sub-species but far too distant to get a good photo to post here. There was also Teal, Northern Shoveler and Sheelducks.
