| |  Had a great time in Devon.
Just spent two weeks in Devon and we wanted to fit as much in as possible so it's no surprise that we did quite a lot of travelling around. Amongst other things I managed to see Guillemots, Redshank, loads of Buzzards and lots of other Birds. I came across an unusual Spider (think it's a Steatoda nobilis), rescued an unusual Beetle from the sand (could be a dung beetle) and I've been so close to Red Deer I had them drooling on me. Lots of photos to come and I'll need help identifying some so I wil try and get them on as soon as I can.

Thanks Sheila and Deer boy. Yes I feel refreshed, although it's been a hectic two weeks. We usually try and cram everything in. I'm just sad I didn't fit in a safari on Exmoor but there's always next time.
