Neil ... Not sure if anyone has sent you a PM, but if not then www.stuartlinecruises.co.uk is worth looking at for birdwatching/wildlife trips from and around the Exe area. Also my brother-in-law has also been on one from Paignton Harbour, advertised through the Devon Bird News site.

Hope this helps.

Two Otters crossed the road in front of me as I was on the way to Powderham church early on saturday morning. First definite sighting I've had on the Exe.........not bad after only 17 years of watching.

Just had a blackcap on the feeder. I thought they were mainly summer birds.

I guess we must have some residential one too!

I would like to make 2013 the year i finally see an Osprey.

I have at times been just a few days off seeing them, or within a mile.


We moved house the end of last april, 5 days after we moved an Osprey was spotted flying over the village we'd just moved from....typical right? Also i worked in Kingsbridge and i'd always find reports of Ospreys along the estury on days i was in work and so i'd be close and days i had time and went to look, never found a thing.

Im guessing my best bet is powderham castle? I havent been there since i went to a gig in 2004 though, so if theres anyone off on an Osprey trip anytime, I wouldnt mind tagging along if that would be ok?

I also want to see some new birds this year, so now im living outskirts of plymouth, if anyone in the plymouth area is off birding, again, could i tag along?
