Egret fishing River Clyst, Bridge Weir

Egret fishing River Clyst, Bridge Weir

Another little egret fishing, this one on the River Clyst, directly below the beer garden of the Bridge at Topsham. A pair of swans also feeding in the vicinity.

The tide was near its height, with just traces of the weir in the river poking out of the water. The egret following the line of the weir, looking for fish.

Once it had crossed the river, almost to the bank with the pub, it took off. It then flew across to rest briefly on a reed bed on the far bank, before returning to its original station.
