Still by the time I set out it was dry. I hit one more downpour but by time I arrived at Prawle the sun was shining. It was windy though.


No Cirls!! Lots of Gannets offshore. Did find Stonechats, Linnets, Mipits, Rock Pipits and had views of a Peregrine. As I walked back... suddenly hang on.... Yes a nice Cirl Bunting, not quite in full plumage but a nice bird.
I had considered looking around Slapton Ley but instead went to look around Dartmouth Castle.




Nice views of the harbour and across to another castle. Also a Shag in the harbour and a fly through Oystercatcher.
Popped into Dartington Hall. Its an "arts centre" but the gardens are attractive.



It had been dry and mainly sunny all day but as i write this at the hotel the heavens opened!! Got lucky today!
