A few days visit to the Exe estuary at the tail end of storm Gareth in March 2019.

Mostly clips are from Topsham, over the River Exe and the RSPB Reserves at Bowling Green and Goosemoor. Featuring also brief content between Starcross Rail Station and views over the fence of the Powderham Castle Deer Park, and a very windy few minutes heading for the sea front at Exmoor.

Dandelion flower beiong visited by a tiny bee, which already had well-filled pollen baskets.

Black swans are native to Australia. A group were established in Dawlish, south Devon.

Sometimes they range as far as the Teign estuary and the Exe estuary.

These two were on the Exe at Topsham, feeding on the mud exposed at low tide. They were definitely a pair.

Small clump of marsh marigolds beginning to flower. The final picture was taken two days later that the ones where the flower buds were still just starting opening.

Wigeon congregating as a group on the water at the RSPB Bowling Green Reserve, Topsham, constantly reminding each other of their presence through their high, whistling calls.
