    Thanks for your answers everyone. As I continued into North Devon there were still lots of Starlings on the wing, and I think they all probably congregate somewhere in Hartland Forest.

    Just driven through God's wonderful country from Cornwall to North Devon in glorious sunshine all the way. Couldn't resist a stop at the Rock Brewery for supplies and then a stop overlooking Polzeath beach for pasties. However I was genuinely surprised at the number of Starlings flying about -...

    Looking it up on Streetmap was a bit vague, so that's very helpful thanks Roger, I'm heading for Falmouth on Thursday so could once again make a detour.... Mind you, Porthcothan could also be on the agenda! Looking back through my records I haven't seen Hawfinch in this country since 1998! Jon
