We went to Devon to look for Cirl Buntings & Dartford Warblers.

We started at Dawlish Warren station, where we saw the Cornish Riviera Statesman Dorridge-Penzance headed by D1924 Crewe Diesel Depot & 47712 Lady Diana Spencer.

We had a walk around Dawlish Warren NNR to look for Cirl Buntings.

We saw at least 4 Males around the site.

Other wildlife we saw at Dawlish Warren were Stonechats, Linnets, Six-spot Burnet Moths, Mallards, House Sparrows, Common Whitethroat, Sandwich Terns & Sanderlings.

We were a bit early for Autumn Ladies Tresses, but managed to find some Marsh Helleborines in full flower.

On our way to Aylesbeare Common, we saw a few Fallow Deer at Powderham Castle.

At Aylesbeare Common RSPB, me & Dad went to look for the Southern Damselfly by the stream.

Sadly, the weather was against us & it was a very wet afternoon.

All we saw were Azure Damselfly, Common Blue Damselfly, Blue-tailed Damselfly & Emerald Damselflies. Also Giant Cranefly.

We saw a Dartford Warbler on our way back to the carpark, but very briefly.
