A blustery but mostly sunny day with occasional showers failed to deter a total of 16 members for a walk around Sand Point to St. Thomas’s Head. Walk started with a large movement of Swallows heading west over Sand Point, having presumably come from an overnight roost at Blagdon/Chew. Soon after, we heard a Whitethroat just south of the car park that showed beautifully for about five minutes. A male Ring Ouzel was seen distantly half way along Sand Point but quickly flew into cover as a passing shower forced us to also find shelter! Upon arrival to Middle Hope, a female Wheatear was seen in flight and at least two territorial Rock Pipits were seen on the north side. The group were overjoyed to find a second male Ring Ouzel feeding and showing well on a cliff in the cove with a possible female also associating with it. A Grasshopper Warbler was heard reeling in bramble just above the cove but could not be located in a twenty minute search. News of a Redstart prompted a quick detour over to St. Thomas’s Head, which unfortunately was unsuccessful but we did manage to find several obliging Stonechats that posed for photos. All in all, a decent walk with everyone very happy with what they had seen. Many thanks to all who attended. (Thanks to Matt for leading). Matt Hull
