It's our first full day on Dartmoor, so what better excuse do we need to head off to the Exe Estuary for a spot of
BIRD SPOTTING
Dave quickly spotted this little beauty!

TOPSHAM, DEVON, is a dreamy little place, tranquil,
.
well after a fashion!
We had gone there to see AVOCETS - click here to take a look at some of the wildlife we saw today.
It's a strange place where you can walk/drive along stretches of the foreshore, or use the raised walkways, if you want to keep your feet dry!
Once again, GRAHAM and MEWALLY seem to be having a high old time. I'm not too sure if Graham's got the hang of this bird watching thing.
Topsham is a lovely place, if a little touristy at times,
blessed as it is with lovely light for artists, DUTCH HOUSES,
The lads kept on BIRDING, as I stalked them quietly. See how evenly they space themselves? How and why???
As I said, Topsham's lovely and it's just across the way from Lymstone and all those marines.
Sometimes people do the strangest things, and big, manly, RICH having a LATTE is way up there. This 2tone confection with its cigar wafer made me howl. The waiter thought I was impressed with it; and I suppose I was .... in a way : )
We settled down to our rest and natter and then, replenished, we headed back to BRIMPTS FARM.
Phil's got a camera like mine. Unlike me he is taking the trouble to READ THE MANUAL! I didn't know people REALLY did that!
