Saltmarsh at high tide
The Exe Estuary at 'Cockwood corner', Dawlish Warren, Devon, England, this morning.
See where this picture was taken. [?]
This part of the nature reserve adjoins a golf course and is private, but we are fortunate to have access for the monthly Wetland Bird Survey (WeBS) high tide count which is carried out across wetlands in the UK. The Exe Estuary is important for wintering wildfowl and waders and has a number of designations: Dawlish Warren itself is a National Nature Reserve and Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), as is most of the estuary as well, as well as a Ramsar site and Special Protection Area.
