I Wish I was a Bit Taller

I ventured over to Seaton and Black Hole Marsh again this afternoon to have a look at the Spotted Crake, it was showing well but distantly from the Island Hide but I hadn't taken my scope along.
It was also visible of and on from a much nearer vantage point by the viewing screen but unfortunately there was a lot of foreground vegetation and I just wasn't tall enough to avoid getting it in the viewfinder. Still, nice to see and my second one 'on patch'. There were a few Wheatears and a lovely male Whinchat over on Colyford Common too which I didn't have so much trouble with!
