Avocet Cruise - where is it????





After spending the whole week travelling, I wasn't impressed with having to get a bus from Taunton to Exeter. However, we were going on a bird cruise. I don't have a vaste bird knowledge but I've learned a lot more as a result of the cruise. I learned that Goldeneye is actually a bird, not just a james bond movie. We saw hundreds of avocets, cormorants, shags, gulls etc. We also saw plover, shanks and lots of other names that I didn't know, and couldn't see but apparently they were there. Ali and I were without a doubt the youngest there, and actually fitted in quite well with our waterproof coats and bobble hats :)
